<p>My D took the SAT II and got an 800; took the AP test and got a 5. No Spanish in the home, she just got A’s in class and as you know language study is cumulative. If you are learning it steadily for 5 years, you should be well prepared (assuming the teacher was any good and included sufficient listening/speaking practice as well as writing.)</p>
<p>She did say the listening/speaking part of the AP (or was it the SAT II? I forget how these things work) was very difficult.</p>
