<p>For my intended major of linguistics, i should also note that i taught myself french throughout my sophomore year and the summer of 2008 to the level where i am currently taking AP french. additionally, i have started teaching myself russian this summer and will continue to do so throughout the school year to prepare for college courses.</p>
<p>So, assuming my interview/essays/recommendations are all stellar, what would you say my chances are?? This is the one school that I have my heart set on after weighing all my options, and I can only hope that I can be admitted to the FLL to study linguistics and global cultures.</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
