Spanish CLEP - Am I ready?

[jhnc]

I can't tell you how helpful this forum has been in my quest to finally complete my undergrad degree. With that in mind, I'm about to register for my first CLEP exam. If I pass this it will get me off the hook for 4 semesters of Spanish. My university requires a minimum score of 50 on the foreign language exams. I've taken three Peterson's practice tests, and my scores were 73, 69, 77 respectively.

Is this a good indication that I could pass the actual CLEP test with at least a 50?

Many thanks!

I TOOK THIS EXAM AND IT WAS A PIECE OF CAKE. IF YOU PASSED THE PRACTICE EXAMS THAT WELL, CONSIDER YOURSELF THE NEW OWNER OF 12 COLLEGE LEVEL FOREIGN LANGUAGE CREDIT.

CONGRATS!! sorry for the caps. I got carried away.

Thanks for the encouragement. Will I receive my score immediately after completing the exam?

Passed the Spanish exam today! I will say it was noticeably harder than the three Peterson's practice exams I took. I think the listening sections on Peterson's are slower and more clear than the actual CLEP ones. Regardless, I was thrilled to see my score pop up on the screen!

Now on to Biology (ugh) and Analyzing & Interpreting Literature, and I'm done.
