How to Study for the Spanish Clep Exam
The Spanish Clep Exam is probably the most elusive of all of the Clep exams. Mostly, people who attempt to pass this exam tend to already speak Spanish, and so they feel comfortable in taking the test. There is only 1 test for Spanish 1 and Spanish 2. To pass Spanish 1 you need to get a 50 on the exam, to pass Spanish 2 you need to get a 54 to 60 on the same exam, depending on which college you are applying credit to.
