I am a little concerned about the entire language placement test and what language I will be placed in. I took two years of spanish (my last being my freshman year in high school) so its been over 3 years since I did anything with a foreign language at school. I took the online placement test for spanish that I got an email about (lets just say I did very poorly, I know I didn't know anything). I was told by a few people that unless I wanted a hard language (Russian/Chinese) I should sleep during the test. I am the kind of person that it is very hard to force myself to do bad on purpose (just a morals thing). I want to do astronautical engineering and I know languages are not very important in a engineering major. Does your major interest have anything to do with languages? Or will my placement test in spanish have anything to do with what I will take? I'm just curious to see what goes into the language placement. I really would like to take either Spanish again, or French, or German. Any advice? Thanks!
