<p>I've taken Spanish I up through Spanish III, but have decided not to continue with Spanish IV. Will this hurt my chances at schools like HYPSM?</p>
<p>Here are my circumstances:</p>
<p>1) Taking Spanish IV could possibly lose my vale. status and bump me to salu.
2) Instead of it I would take an AP humanities elective like Human Geo or Computer Science.
3) The Spanish III and IV curriculums were changed last year to match a "storytelling" and "implicit learning" format, so that nothing is taught as a grammar lesson, but as repetitive short stories. </p>
<p>Should I go for Spanish IV and AP?</p>
