I'm preparing for the NBCMI Spanish oral exam and have a question for those who have actually taken it.

The practice videos I'm using have very long utterances, the narrator has a pretty thick accent, speaks very fast, and often jumps back and forth between different ideas within the same utterance, making note-taking difficult.

Is the actual NBCMI oral exam similar to this, or are these videos just not very representative of the real test?

I'd really appreciate any feedback from those who have taken the Spanish oral exam. Thanks!

Hi everyone,

For those who have taken the NBCMI Spanish/English oral exam, about how many seconds were the consecutive interpreting utterances?

What was the longest one you remember?

Also, if anyone who passed is open to messaging me with advice, I’d really appreciate it.

Thanks!

Hi everyone. I passed the NBCMI written exam for English-Spanish and I’m preparing for the oral exam. I’m not looking for a course or actual test answers — just hoping to speak with someone who passed it and can tell me how difficult it felt, what the pacing was like, and what to expect generally. I’d really appreciate a quick DM or 10-minute chat.
