I can't say as an absolute certainty seeing as I haven't taken this test, but I looked into it on the collegeboard site some time ago, and judging by the sample questions it is an extremely easy test to pass. If you're comfortable with a few hundred kanji and fundamental textbookish expressions, I doubt you'll have any problems. For difficulty I'd rate it at J-pod's lower-intermediate.

I've heard that they use incredibly difficult kanji on the exam (the example questions on the collegeboard website are a false portrayal of the actual exam, as they only ask level 1-3ish questions, out of 5 difficulty levels [level determined by the collegeboard]) so I think its best to review more kanji than you expect to be presented with.
