<p>Taking German for one year in high school won’t give you enough to know it and you will probably forget it if you don’t take German in college and the colleges know that. They want someone to commit to one language. I got this from another CC thread:
Seattle Pacific University
Duke
Stanford
Harvard
Yale
Williams
These colleges and more require 3 years not including colleges that recommend 3 at least and you seem like a top student that might want to apply to one of those colleges.</p>
