[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are targeting top 20 colleges, do they all require 4 years of world language? Is there a way to easily find who all require 4 years of world language. Kid is in high school and she wants to decide whether to pursue 4th year. Thanks![/quote]

and you should note the word "minimum" 4 years.
they don't expect just 4 years they expect 6-7 including AP[/quote]

6-7 years? How? My kid started taking Latin in 9th grade. His school only allows one language per year. [/quote]

I don't think 6-7 is in any way expected. However, my kids went to a middle school where world language was required every year. 6th grade intro class, 7th grade level 1, 8th grade level 2. So then if they took that language all four years of HS, they'd have six years - 1-5+AP.  Most of their classmates do not do that. Stopping after level 4 to make room in the schedule for other electives is the norm.  DS really liked his language teacher so he went through level 5 but didn't take it in senior year.  DD is stopping after level 4 to make room for an extra science class (her passion).[/quote]
