Screwed Up On AP Spanish

<p>I'm new here and I'm just trying to get some help.
So my school doesn't offer the AP Spanish class but I took the test since I know Spanish. Yesterday, during the simulated conversation, my counselor told me to stop recording when I wasn't speaking. It felt awkward starting and stopping so when I got home I found the proctor's instructions. It clearly states that the tape recorder should not be stopped. My counselor did not tell me this at all. I told her today and her excuse was that she didn't want me to run out of tape.</p>

<p>My question is, will collegeboard reject my conversation part?
Please help. Much appreciated</p>

<p>From what my teacher has said, collegeboard will reject your tape. For example, if the tape length should be, say, 115s on the counter, and your tape is only 45s, there is evidence of tampering/stopping the tape. The reason why is so one can’t play the listening part of the conversation, stop it, plan out your response, practice it, and then record again when you’re ready. it’s to ensure the simulated conversation is at a conversational pace, really. </p>

<p>It sounds like this would be considered a “test irregularity” and it says collegeboard MIGHT offer to allow a retake at no cost, but it says they also determine each case individually.
