:mad:
I needed a 50 and received a 48. I am now pulled from my student teaching placement effective immediately until I complete the foreign language requirement.
I am broken hearted. 6 weeks with the students and now poof..all that work.
I need ideas on how to complete this Spanish asap. Are there other tests? Is there an accelerated course that I could have the 6 credits within the next two months so I can get back in the classroom by Jan.? Has anyone ever heard of testing out at a university? I am sure I could make up those two points...and all things considered, I have not taken Spanish since 1984; But I also lived in Italy for 6 months, and have used the Spanish frequently over the years. It had to be something silly like a conjugation that I got wrong.
I am at Fairleigh Dickinson University. I have begged them to reconsider and give me some kind of credit for the 48, but so far have no answer.
I have 140 credits and my Masters thesis completed. All that stands between me and my Masters/BA degree is 7 more weeks of student teaching and this damned foreign language.
I will consider any and all suggestions. I have an appointment to speak to the dean on Monday; any help will be appreciated and rewarded. It is so incredibly difficult to get this far and hit the wall. :ack:
