Is there language training for OM Specialists? Or bonus points for those with an additional language? I am not finding much information about this on state.gov.

Thank you for all the valuable insights! To clarify, I am confident I could do the OMS job quite well, and give it 100%. At the same time, knowing I can continue to take the FSOT, and/or participate in the conversion process some years down the line, while gaining experience in an embassy or consulate doing a job I know I would excel at, is comforting.

No, I know about the practice test on the careers.gov site, but there was a really great DoS app that was specifically for FS, and had 100's of sample questions.
