<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I'm a sophomore, and I took Spanish 1 last year. This year, I was taking Spanish 2, but 2 weeks into the school year, they decided I knew much for Spanish 2, and I am now in Pre AP Spanish 3. This brings me to my questions: Will it look weird on an application that I have gone from Spanish 1 to Spanish 3? Would it be against me to take AP Spanish next year, then in senior year take Latin or French 1? I would take Spanish 5, but it's a bit of a soft option, because it's more of a cultural class.</p>

<p>Thanks everyone</p>

2

<p>No, it won't hurt you at all.</p>

3

<p>that'll look better.</p>

4

<p>Thanks everyone! Now two more questions....</p>

<p>Would I have to include some sort of explanation for my switch into Spanish 3 from Spanish 1?</p>

<p>Is a possible language major more likely to gain admission to princeton than, say an engineering major?</p>

5

<p>No.</p>

<p>Not necessarily.</p>
