<p>I'm not sure if I should take a third year of spanish, I am currently a freshman and taking spanish 2, having quite a hard time in this class because my teacher does not teach well and I am barely passing her class with Bs. My GPA unweighted is a 3.4, I live in Florida and trying to get into colleges like USF, UF, FAU, FSU...etc basically any school in Florida that is good, I am trying to go for the medical program for USF and UCF, I need a 3.7 unweighted GPA, just to be straight up truthful I hate spanish, I suck at it, I die when I am in that class because I know I completely suck at it, I have a spanish tutor and I still can't understand it. I am scared that it will lower my GPA and just interfear with my other school work so will colleges that are in Florida really care about 3 years of Spanish?</p>
<p>Check the school’s websites to see how many years they recommend. Also not sure how they will view you dropping it? </p>
<p>I understand what you’re going through though. I’m in a similar situation, except i’m great in spanish but suck at math/science. trying to figure out what math to take in my senior year. One that colleges are looking for and risk my GPA or something else. I"l be an english major by the way, so not really sure what use pre-calc is going to do for me.</p>
<p>How many years do the universities require? based on your situation, I wouldn’t worry about the recommendations and just focus on the requirement. obviously with college, more always helps, but their is a reason that they’re recommendations and not requirements.</p>
<p>also, keep in mind that even if you’re taking spanish 2, I believe that this would be considered as 1 year of world lang., since colleges are talking about the years taken in high school</p>
<p>good luck</p>
