How do I decide whether to take a Language Subject Test as a reading test or a listening test?
You should take the test that best suits your type of preparation. There is no difference in difficulty between the two tests; however, the tests with listening can provide a more complete picture of a student’s skills. For this reason, colleges may prefer the listening test to the reading-only test for placement purposes. If you are taking the test for admissions purposes, college deadlines for submitting applications may determine the choice of test. The Language Tests with Listening are only offered in November.
