<p>English is my first language. I have studied Spanish for almost five years, and I've had experience in Central America using the language. I'm just not sure if that qualifies me as "proficient" for the purposes of the common app. I can definitely hold a conversation and understand anything I read, but I still wouldn't consider myself completely fluent. But I do want to make sure they understand that I'm committed to mastering this language. </p>
<p>Should I list Spanish under languages I am proficient in, or not?</p>
