<p>So im in my senior year currently in spanish 3 Academic (regular level). I absolutely hate Spanish, most because im horrible at it. Anyways i have the option of dropping it and taking AP Psych. If i do so i will only have 2 years of language, spanish 1 and 2. taking psych will give me 5 years of full year social studies classes
Thoughts anyone?</p>
<p>bummmp come on guys</p>
<p>buuump
someone please give me their input</p>
<p>bummmped again -_-</p>
<p>although i’m in spanish IV, i say go for the AP psych class.</p>
<ol>
<li>it’s AP so +GPA and it’s probably more challenging than spanish III so it looks better regardless</li>
<li>if you’re not interested in minoring or anything with spanish, don’t worry about going over the 2 year requirement. what’s the point of going over in spanish if you don’t plan on doing anything with it?</li>
</ol>
<p>even if you don’t plan on doing anything revolving social studies, it would look great as a pathway.</p>
<p>Totally depends on where u are applying; some schools want 3 yrs FL</p>
<p>Some schools want to see three or even FOUR years of a foreign language but only two years of social studies. It is rarely even four years of social studies. You might want to contact Admissions at your top choice schools for advice, but to me, three years of a foreign language is about the minimum. And I absolutely would prefer to take Psych over any foreign language!</p>
<p>even if im fluent in another language?</p>
<p>im applying to schools like rutgers penn state uconn drexel, my gpa is low if that might be a factor in this…? and since im fluent in another langauge does it really matter that i dont take spanish 3</p>

<p>Some schools may accept alternate means of proving language proficiency (e.g. AP tests or SAT Subject tests) for those who know a language without taking high school courses in it. Check with each school if this is the case for the school.</p>
<p>Of course, if the language you know is obscure or does not have some widely recognized way of showing proficiency, that may be more difficult to prove to a college admissions committee.</p>
<p>Even the national language of india…Hindi?</p>
