<p>french looks pretty low for huntsman.</p>

<p>I don't see Huntsman happening but other than that you have a strong application. Good luck.</p>

<p>Thanks for the input.</p>

<p>Do you think a high placement in Le Grand Concours de Francais (not sure if that would come out in time although I do remember that we take the test during February) and high marks in AP French Literature this semester would give me a chance, or am I really hoping for too much in Huntsman?</p>

<p>This is really making me regret slacking off in French last year... :(</p>

<p>This is kinda random but I took French Lit last year and I thought Collegeboard cancelled the program. My teacher made a big deal of there being no more AP French Lit.</p>
