@MYOS1634 , would you able to advice if it makes sense to take arabic in addition to spanish? Thank you!
I would not take Arabic unless you forsee a need for Arabic in your career in the future.
Well, Arabic is a critical language that the DoD places a premium on. We need more Arabic/English speakers who master both at professional level, preferably with French due to the French influence in Maghreb and in the Mediterranean.
On the other hand, it’s VERY VERY hard (which explains why we have so few truly bilingual speakers and why the number of Critical Language Flagship programs has been increased.)
