<p>According to assist.org potential molecular bio majors at cal have to complete the major requirements as well as the IGETC or L&S requirements. What confuses me is that the L&S requirements state that you need 3 years of a foreign language at high school while the IGETC states that you only need 2. </p>

<p>Do certain majors at Cal only require 2 years of a foreign language in high school or do they all require 3? I took the first year of spanish in my sophomore year of high school and the 2nd in the following summer. I don't have a 3rd year. </p>

<p>Am I good to go or should I start studying for the spanish SAT subject test?(I don't want to take anymore spanish classes)</p>

<p>I’d assume IGETC applies to college stuff, if however you can certify with the HS classes, awesome! </p>

<p><em>smirk</em> Of course, to be competitive I’d suggest 3 years of high school in 4 or 5 languages! :)</p>
