No physics and only 3 years of foreign language

<p>If I've never taken physics, and stopped after my 3rd year in Spanish, does that mean I'm unlikely to be admitted? My classes are pretty much all AP and honors, so I promise I haven't been slacking... I was just looking at Princeton's website and saw these recommendations.</p>

<p>I mean, I have a 4.0 unweighted GPA, and a 35 on the ACT, so otherwise I'm in the range of admission in other areas...</p>

<p>I was admitted with only 3 years of a foreign language. I did take physics, but I know of people were admitted without taking physics…it’s significantly more important if you’re applying for BSE, but even then some were accepted without prior physics experience.</p>

<p>I myself was admitted with only two years of foreign language, Chinese 2 and 3 (5 is AP level). You should be fine.</p>

<p>If possible, we expect students will complete the following courses before beginning study at Princeton:
four years of English (including continued practice in writing)
four years of mathematics (including calculus for students interested in engineering)
four years of one foreign language
at least two years of laboratory science (including physics and chemistry for students interested in engineering)
at least two years of history</p>

<p>What is your intended major. If engineering or science, I’d take physics. I know folks here are saying…I got in without this or that but I am sure their other STATs were outstanding. If you don’t take foreign language in High school, I presume you will have to spend the princeton tuition to meet that requirement, once you are admitted.</p>
