Whats the difference between the French test and the French with Listening test?
The French test usually includes reading only—you read in French and answer multiple-choice questions. However, besides the reading portion, the test given in November also includes a listening portion—you listen in French and answer multiple-choice questions. Although students report feeling more anxious about the listening portion, they also tend to do better on that part of the test. Colleges say the French with Listening test gives them a fuller picture of your ability and is more useful for placement purposes. In any case, remember that you won’t have to write or speak in French on either of these tests.
