------------------
Mary - Thanks so much for responding to my query.  Have you compared the Wisconsin tests to the CAPE series?  Are you able to have oral testing of some sort with the digitalized version?  Again thanks so much for answering my plea for enlightenment!  I'll let you know if we cut a deal with Wisconsin - Thanks, Carol

> We have also been using the Wisconsin Exams for French, German and Spanish.  About 2 years ago we requested permission from Wisconsin to digitize their exam so that we could put it on-line.  Now we pay them $1 for each student that takes the test on-line during our summer pre-registration.  We are allowed to share our digitized version with other schools if they first make a similar financial agreement with Wisconsin.  Please contact me off-list if you would like additonal information.
