Language

<p>I recently began studying political science in college and plan on applying to some IR programs in the future. </p>

<p>My Question: How does one decide which language to study? </p>

<p>Quandary: I am thinking about Mandarin or French but am not sure which to learn.</p>

<p>What areas of the world particularly interest you?</p>

<p>What issues or types of issues particularly interest you?</p>

<p>How much effort are you willing to put into learning the language?</p>
