I need help

so my highschool counselor always told me that since I only took 1 year of Spanish 4 (honors) for my college applications that would look as if I took all 4 years. how do I include that in my college applications. do I just add one Spanish class each year ??? or

If you took one year of Spanish you list one course. Did you take those in middle school? Unless Spanish is your first language I think taking Spanish 4 counts as having 4 years of a foreign language.

If you took any Spanish in Middle school, you can list those courses on most applications. Which schools are you applying?
