A test taker’s proficiency level is dependent on the test score.  \nThe exam contains approximately 121 questions to be answered in approximately 90 minutes. Some of these are pretest questions that won’t be scored. There are three separately timed sections. The three sections are weighted so that each question contributes equally to the total score.  \nThere are two Listening sections and one Reading section. Each section has its own timing requirements.  \nListening Sections  \n■ The two listening sections together are approximately 30 minutes long.  \n■ The amount of time you’ll have to answer a question varies according to the section and doesn’t include the time you spend listening to the test material.  \n■ Timing begins after the section directions are dismissed.  \n■ You can change the volume by using the Volume testing tool.  \nReading Section  \n■ The Reading section is 60 minutes in length.  \nKnowledge and Skills Required  \nQuestions on the Spanish Language exam require test takers to comprehend written and spoken Spanish. The subject matter is drawn from the abilities described below. The percentages next to the main topics indicate the approximate percentage of exam questions on each.  \n15% SECTION I: LISTENING: REJOINDERS  \n■ Listening comprehension through short oral exchanges  \n25% SECTION II: LISTENING: DIALOGUES AND NARRATIVES  \n■ Listening comprehension through longer spoken selections  \n60% SECTION III: READING  \n16% Part A: Discrete sentences (vocabulary and structure)  \n20% Part B: Short cloze passages (vocabulary and structure)  \n24% Part C: Reading passages and authentic stimulus materials (reading comprehension)  \n■ The audio portions of the listening sections will be presented only once.  \nUpdated August 2022  \nStudy Resources  \nMost textbooks used in college-level Spanish language courses cover the topics in the above outline, but the approaches to certain topics and the emphases given to them may differ. To prepare for the CLEP Spanish Language exam, it is advisable to study one or more college textbooks, which can be found in most college bookstores. When selecting a textbook, check the table of contents against the knowledge and skills required for this test.  \nBesides studying basic vocabulary, you should understand and be able to apply the grammatical principles that makeup the language. To improve your reading comprehension, read passages from textbooks, short magazine or newspaper articles, or other printed material of your choice. To improve your listening comprehension, seek opportunities to hear the language spoken by native speakers and to converse with native speakers. If you have opportunities to join organizations with Spanishspeaking members, to attend Spanish movies, or to listen to Spanish-language television or radio broadcasts, take advantage of them.  \nA recent survey conducted by CLEP found that the following textbooks are among those used by college faculty who teach the equivalent course. Most of these have companion websites with practice test questions and other study resources.  \n\n| Armen, Abriendo Puertas: Lenguaje (McDougal Littell) |\n| --- |\n| Gill et al., En Contacto (Heinle) |\n| Gilman et al., Nuevos Horizontes (Wiley) |\n| Iglesias and Meiden, Spanish for Oral and Written Review (Heinle) |\n| Kiddle et al., Perspectivas (Heinle) |\n| Knorre et al., Puntos de Partida (McGraw Hill) |\n| Siskin et al., Entrevistas: An Introduction to Language and Culture (McGraw Hill) |\n| Valdes and Teschner, Español Escrito (Prentice Hall)—for native speakers |\n\nIn addition, the following resources, compiled by the CLEP test development comm","cbCaikjisJZuDu7K","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikjisJZuDu7K","pdf",543985,"English","# Description of the Examination\n## Exam format, questions, and timing\n## Listening sections\n## Reading section\n## Knowledge and Skills Required\n### Section I: Listening: Rejoinders\n### Section II: Listening: Dialogues and Narratives\n### Section III: Reading\n# Study Resources\n## Textbook study approach\n## Reading and listening practice strategies\n## Recommended textbooks and online resources\n# Sample Test Questions","[{\"question\":\"What is the CLEP Spanish Language exam designed to measure?\",\"answer\":\"It measures knowledge and ability equivalent to students who have completed one to two years of college Spanish language study.\"},{\"question\":\"How many questions are on the exam, and how long do you have?\",\"answer\":\"The exam has approximately 121 questions to be answered in about 90 minutes, including some unscored pretest questions.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the sections of the exam and what does each cover?\",\"answer\":\"It has three separately timed sections: two Listening sections (about 30 minutes total) and one Reading section (60 minutes), covering short oral exchanges, longer spoken selections, and reading comprehension materials.\"}]","CLEP Spanish Language - Description - Updated August 2022 | PDF",1789900438,13]
