[quote=Anonymous]Every hs kid we know graduates with about 4-5 years of a foreign language. Our DS had AP Spanish in hs, is now a college sophomore and the foreign language was never an issue (I assume he placed out of any college foreign language requirement, if they had one, but I don't know). Now our DD (recently diagnosed ADD) took French 1 in 8th grade, repeated in 9th grade, barely got a B, and now is really struggling in French 2. She says it's really really hard. She studies, has a tutor and is otherwise a strong B/B+ student. So foreign language is a real area of weakness for her. We've pretty much decided that she'll take Spanish 1 and 2 in her jr and sr years in hs. So my question is what, if any, impact will that have on her college acceptance? Once she's in college, what kind of foreign language requirement have you typically seen? Obviously, she won't be apply to Ivy league level schools. [/quote]
