Would SAT II replace AP Language?

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>So I am a sophomore planning my junior schedule and I have more classes I want to take, than I have space in my schedule to take them. My planned schedule for next year is:
AP Chemistry
AP Statistics
AP Physics 1
AP US History
AP English Language and Composition
Pre-AP Pre-calculus
Marching Band/Concert Band</p>

<p>I will have no space for a fourth year of Spanish, which I don't really enjoy anyways, unless I give up one of the classes that I am actually interested in taking. However, I know that for admission into competitive universities four years of a foreign language are ideal. Since, I am unable to take the fourth year of a language would a SAT subject test in either Spanish or Spanish with Listening be a good substitute for that class? Which one would be better to take? How difficult are these subject tests? </p>

<p>It won’t be the same, an SAT subject test just shows your level of competence a fourth year of spanish will show your commitment to the language and your desire to learn more. Even if you don’t want to take it, you really should take a fourth year. </p>

<p>SAT Subject tests presume the equivalent of 1 year college Spanish, so it does not take the place of a 4th year of Spanish.</p>

<p>Honestly, unless you have some specific reason that you want to take AP Statistics, it is much less useful for your college chances and future than continuing Spanish would be for you. </p>
