<p>Hey everyone,</p>
<p>So let me give you a little background on my situation: I've taken Spanish since 6th grade. Last summer, I decided I wanted to take French so I taught myself French I and II over the summer, entered French III H, and then in May took the French AP and scored a 5. However, my teacher put me in the level below AP French, and that's what I'm signed up for now. </p>
<p>If you can't tell, I'm a language person. I also took the German AP last year, but only got a 3 because I didn't study it well - I only did 10 minutes here and there. I'm skipping a year of Spanish now and going into AP Spanish, so for senior year I'll be taking AP Spanish and Inter-college French, which as I said is one level below the AP. </p>
<p>My question is whether it makes sense to take French anymore. When I took a French placement test, I actually placed above AP, so I'm not even sure if that would make sense. I'm worried that colleges will think I'm trying to take the easy way out by taking a class that's about two years below my level. If I dropped French, I could continue self studying and I could take another language like Mandarin or Latin.</p>
<p>If anyone's familiar with the CEFR language proficiency scale, my French and Spanish are both at about a C1 level, if that helps at all.</p>
<p>What do you think?</p>
<p>EDIT: I wouldn't mind staying in the French class I'm signed up for because the teacher is a native French speaker unlike my last teacher. I think I could probably really improve my accent to perfection if I had her, but I'm not sure if that's worth a year of my time.</p>
