<p>Hello everyone,</p>
<p>I'm registered to take the SAT I on October 1, and have just decided to switch to take subject tests this time around (long story). I want to take the French test, but I noticed it is only offered WITHOUT the listening portion. Are colleges less accepting of the French with reading only, or would I be ok? In other words, is it worth it to wait until November to take the test? </p>
<p>Thanks for your help, and good luck to everyone testing!</p>

<p>No, it isn’t. Colleges have no explicit preference for either the listening or non-listening tests.</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>Sure, listening looks better than just reading. but any kind of language test looks good in general</p>
<p>The only difference would be the curve you could expect to receive. French w/listening gives a better curve than w/o but colleges don’t care either way as long as your test score is within their averages for admitted students</p>
