Does anyone know if REA or other books are made in other languages? (French) I know basic English but sometimes the wording is too confusing. I know that studying from a book with a different language can be a disadvantage because I won't be familiar with the wording on the real exam however, I think it's better that at least I understand what the book is talking about.

Check out all of their publications here http://www.rea.com/search.cfm
It doesn't look like they publish in anything but English.

I don't know why but for some reason the site confused me...I didn't know where to start.

hahaI'm sure CollegeBoard publishes CLEP test-prep books in other languages. I'll check some sites out for you, then come back and let you know what I find out.

Be careful. My brain may be weird, but when I think in Spanish, I think in Spanish. LOL.. that sounds really strange to say, but do you know what I mean? I worked for a brief time as a medical translator for a physician friend of mine in Mexico. I really struggled, because I could read and understand the English, or I could read and understand things in Spanish. I just had a hard time going back and forth.
Anyhow, if you're anything like me, I would say, study in English and you'll do better on the test. Of course, if every bilingual person were like me, we wouldn't have too many translators in the world
