ERC Language Requirement

<p>So my plan is to brush up on my hindi and well learn it ASAP. My plan is to do the proficiency exam say the fall of 12 [ one year of practice to learn to read and write ;P]</p>

<p>however, if my plans do change, is it possible to take Spanish at mira costa [without having to take the placement exam at UCSD?]</p>

<p>the site says to fulfill the language requirement you need:
"Completion of a fourth quarter of language course (or third semester or equivalent elsewhere). Classes may be taken for a letter grade or P/NP. Self-directed language study (Linguistics 19) may NOT be used to satisfy this requirement."</p>

<p>so would that mean three classes at MCC?</p>

<p>thank you</p>
