Third Year French or AP Theory?

<p>Hi,
I only have room in my schedule senior year (unless something changes drastically) for one more class. I currently will only have 4 AP's (one self-study) and two years of a language. I can take either French 3 or AP Music Theory (I'm a fairly talented percussionist). Which would look better for Penn?</p>

<p>French would definitely look better. A lot of schools, especially top universities, want to see three or four years of a foreign language. Plus, for what it’s worth, AP Music Theory is a completely useless exam for Penn (you don’t even get placement into a higher theory class).</p>
