<p>A) Are the Barron's SAT II Spanish tests realistic? I used Barron's for French and their tests were disproportionately harder. But Spanish is an entirely different subject, and thus, produced by entirely different people. </p>
<p>B) Can anybody give me the first ten indices for the spanish curve from the SAT II Subject Tests book, or any other curves for the test.
-How many questions can you usually get wrong (without leaving any blank) and score an 800?</p>
<p>A) I used Barron's the first time and was consistently getting between 450 and 550 and I think I once got about 570 or 580, although I never broke 600. I took it in Dec and got a 680, which is pretty good since I taught myself spanish in 2 years. The tests are much harder than the actual test, by about 50 points (I do much better in exam situations).
B) You can generally miss 2 or 3, or omit 3 or 4 and get an 800.</p>
<p>well, i'm barely a native speaker and i studied with a kaplan book. i would say that the test was about as hard or maybe a little easier than the practice tests. this is a grade conversion chart someone posted around here for me to see the conversions:: (i'm sry, i deleted everything lower than 600)</p>
