self-studying japanese

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>Hey guys, </p>

<p>I'm starting to self-studying Japanese since I already have Chinese as foundation. However, there's a dilemma---I don't know how to convey to the colleges I have applied to that I am doing so and prove my proficiency since I've already submitted all of my apps. I know there's a SATII, AP and JPLT that measures proficiency but I don't think I will get anywhere close to the proficiency of SATII and AP and I don't know much about JPLT. </p>

<p>I would greatly appreciate advice from anyone with previous experience self-studying Japanese. </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Chinese and Japanese are completely different languages… for speaking at least</p>

<p>You could probably enter a japanese language competition to demonstrate your proficiency</p>

<p>If you won’t have the proficiency to do at least the SATII then colleges aren’t going to care that you’re self-studying Japanese. There’s no point in trying to inform them of something like that.</p>
