<p>I was told to take the LPE to see if I could get into 3rd year Spanish so I have a couple of questions for those who have taken it. How difficult would you say each component was and what kind of things would we be expected to know to pass? I’m a horrendous speaker and a somewhat bad listener is the speech is fast so I am wondering if I should simply reserve a seat for myself in Span 1004 now instead of waiting till august/september for my test results, when all the spots for that lower level Spanish may be taken.</p>
