Fsi: Who's done it?

Ok so I'm about to start a new course: FSI Spanish Progammatic. The FSI language courses were developed by the Foreign Language Institute to help train American diplomats before they were stationed overseas. It looks really boring but is supposed to be one of the few courses that give you something close to fluency, especially being developed by the people that actually judge fluency levels. Anyone here done it? I couldn't write it in all caps in the title because I got yelled at by the system for writing in all caps.

Well any information that I could give you about this program would all be second or possibly even third hand, so I won't bother with that, but I wish you the best of luck, and please keep us updated on how this program works for you grin

No, I have not done it, but I have heard of it. I believe, if I'm not mistaken, that they assess how fluent you are by your ability to handle specific work related situations.

I wish you well. If you don't mind telling us, does it cost anything? How do you take this program? I'm always looking for ways to mix up my learning.

Gracias
