Please let me know how you think it would be with a few days of review? Thank you!!!

Hey JoliesMom,

I don't consider myself fluent because I don't think in Spanish, and verb abuse is still prevalent in my speech. I've been studying Spanish on the side for some time, between other CLEPs, DSSTs, B&M Eng Comp (Fall 06), and most recently B&M College Alg (Summer I 07 - 6wks). If anything > 50 will do, then a few days of study should do. If you're looking for > 66, then it will depend on how well you cram. My recommendations are as follows:

1. Study the Schaum's Spanish Outline
2. Goto the grammar links found @ Free Spanish Lessons and Spanish Language Courses and practice.
3. Take the 2nd Peterson's exam (take shorthand notes during the audio.)
4. Review your exam 1 & 2 trouble areas.
5. Repeat 1 & 2 above.
6. Take the 3rd Peterson's exam (take shorthand notes during the audio.)
7. Review any exam 3 trouble areas.
8. Repeat 1 & 2 above.
9. Go take the CLEP (take shorthand notes during the audio.)
10. Please let me know how steps 1 - 9 worked out.

Best of Luck,
