Is the level of English in Spain generally pretty low?


Is the level of English in Spain generally pretty low?
I'm a college student, and I'm studying abroad there this summer. I'm currently in intermediate Spanish, so I think I could get around pretty well. But I'm definitely not a master of the language yet, so I'm a little worried about having to rely on Spanish all the time. Is the level of English generally pretty low in Spain? I'm traveling in central and northern areas.

How the heck do you think you will ever get fluent without having to rely on your Spanish all the time? No. They don't really speak English, there. And, you need to stay more than a summer.
2 :
English level is quite low in Spain. Besides if you're staying in non specific tourist areas English level will still be lower. If you already can talk a little bit Spanish language don't worry, with your English and Spanish skills you can go around. Don't worry, Spanish people is usually kind and will listen to you and will try to understand what you're talking. Usually they will not get angry or rude if your Spanish is bad, even if you didn't speak Spanish at all they won't be rude. Enjoy your trip.
3 :
Stick to speaking Spanish and don't fall into any bad habits with slipping into trying to explain yourself in English when the going gets rough. This is the only way that you will learn the language, and the Spanish will respect you more for trying. Believe me, an 'intermediate level' is a lot better than 60% of the expats living in Spain at the moment speak.
4 :
Yes, Especially away from hotel reception. Why did you bother to study Spanish if you are not going to use it? Get out there and start talking. You have nothing to fear but fear itself.
5 :
In College, Enligsh is pretty good spoken

I'm from Spain. As far as I know you can carry those things with you. Bagagges are X-Ray checked only in some trains but the kind of knifes sold in Toledo are souvenir types, I think you will have no problem at all.
2 :
Anything goes in Spain, but why would you want to take a knife on the train anyway?? This may cause you problems so why bother.
3 :
Why do you need to buy a knife in Toledo? I think is a bad idea to buy knives from Toledo or any where else... and i dont think they let you have it, ill tell them that you have a knive, o.k.?
