AP SPANISH 4 drop it?

Pre-College Issues High School Life
1

<p>I am a senior hoping for Columbia ED.
My classes are</p>

<p>AP English 4
AP Stats
AP Spanish 4
AP Physics
AP Psychology</p>

<p>I am considering about dropping AP Spanish because it's just too stressful and I already have 3 years of language. If I drop it, the only option I have is a regular Environmental science class.</p>

<p>Should I switch it to EnvSci? Would it influence my chance at getting into Columbia?</p>

<p>i would keep it cuz i heard most colleges like to see 4 years of language
is it just ap spanish that's stressful?
psych and stats should be a breeze</p>

<p>Can you just switch to regular spanish 4 rather than ap spanish 4?</p>

<p>I actually had to skip Spanish 3 last year and took Spanish 4 instead because my schedule just didn't work out. So if i'm not taking AP SPA, there is no more spanish left for me... I really feel like dropping it, but it's the college's perception that's grabbing me....</p>

<p>If you have had four years of Spanish and are taking other AP classes, it really is all right to drop AP Spanish.</p>

<p>I think you should stick it out. I'm sure an additional year of Spanish outweighs regular environmental science. Is APES not an option?</p>

<p>If regular environmental science is TRULY your only other option, I'd just stick with AP spanish. BUT if you do decide to drop it, I don't think it would be that big a deal since you skipped Spanish 3, took Spanish 4, and technically have 4 years of Spanish under your belt already. But... regular env sci is just.. lame.. lol.</p>
