Joanna, I took both French and German, 12 credit each, for my Excelsior BS in Business. The only sample tests I found are the ones in the CLEP preparation book (about 60 questions). They obviously only test the written part of your vocabulary. There is a Spanish CLEP test out on the Peterson Airforce site if you want an idea on how the test is split up (listening vs. writing). I am not sure where you are from but I am Dutch, with a VWO diploma. German and French were very easy for me. I scored in the 70's with both exams without preparation. The tests were most likely "derde klas" VWO. The audible parts were a little bit difficult, mainly because of the bad quality of the audio that makes some parts almost inaudible. Write everything down that you hear because the questions are about really minute things that don't matter to the general story. Vocabulary/basic grammar is definately the largest part of the test.

Anyway, let me know if you have any other questions, I'll be glad to help.

Christa
