Taking Languages out of order

Pre-College Issues High School Life
1

<p>I am going to be taking Chinese online next year. However, the two chinese classes that I am interested in are Chinese V ap and Chinese 4 honors. I have fairly good chinese, I am half chinese and I know that both classes are easy A's. As a sophomore now, I was wondering if it would be a good idea to take chinese V first next year because it will count into my GPA when I apply to colleges and affect my class rank and then take chinese 4 when I am a senior. Or would it be better to just take them in order even though it would slightly lower my gpa, by taking chinese 4 next year and then chinese V senior year.</p>

<p>Thanks for your help</p>

<p>…why would you take them out of order? take the ap next year and don’t take a foreign language senior year.</p>

<p>how many foreign language credits do most schools want.
I have 1 credit for spanish from middle school and 2 for chinese.
I don’t have any for high school.
is it okay if i only have one foreign langauge credit for high school?</p>

<p>most schools want at least three years of the same language. not sure how theyd feel if you already knew the language and did well on an AP though.</p>
