I’m a junior in HS and did not take Spanish 3 this year. I took 1 and 2 and now I really want to take AP since there is no Spanish 4 at my school (most take 3 and then AP). I really do want to take AP (if this is even an option without 3) and I will even learn it on the side and over the summer. I know this is a question I should ask my counselor but I wanted random internet strangers’ opinions first 
thoughts?
Why didn’t you take 3? Have you been studying Spanish this year? AP after skipping a year seems like a stretch.
My D went from Spanish 2 to AP but she didn’t have a year in between. So you in the gap year now? You need to study all year and maybe get a teacher to tutor you.
