<p>I need some help on what courses I should take to learn Spanish. I took 2 semesters of Spanish before transferring but I seriously need to just restart and make it a priority to learn. </p>

<p>I looked at the course description for Spanish 1 and it looked like it was purely reading and composition. Can anyone verify this?</p>

<p>Are there any decals that might work?</p>

<p>Also, does anyone know how many yrs of HS Spanish 2 semesters works out too? Might not even qualify to take Spanish 1...</p>

<p>can anyone confirm as i understand</p>

<p>1 yr of HS- qualified for Spanish 1
2 yrs of HS - only qualified for Spanish 2, not Spanish 1 (in my case)</p>
