<p>Yes, most people who have had some Spanish but who don’t feel they have a strong background end up in 1060. </p>
<p>My son’s high school didn’t separate language classes by ability, so he ended up with many students in his classes who had no interest in learning. Three years of high school Spanish for him was probably only equal to one semester of college Spanish.</p>
<p>Even if you do badly in the placement test, you can still take 1060. If you look at Lou’s list, you will see SPAN 1060 has the largest numbers by far of sections and seats available for first years in their first semester.</p>
