Current Language Testing Options

[dfrecore]

the only other exam I'm aware of that you haven't already identified is Advanced Placement.  Though it is traditionally taken by high school students, any age can take it, and you do NOT have to take an AP class in order to take an AP exam.

If you want to use AP (which has more languages than CLEP), you need to first find a high school that will let you do it.  Since AP exams are all taken at the same days/times across the country, and all of those are during normal school hours, schools are allowed to say no to anyone (especially an adult) coming onto campus, even for an exam.  So, find your testing place first before committing to learning the language.

Also, you have to register ahead of time, as AP exams only given once a year.  The deadline for this year has passed, so you'd have to wait until next May to take the exam.
