[quote=Anonymous]OP, try to look at the spirit of it rather than specific recommendation you heard. UVA looks for kids who make long-term commitments to educational tracks for the sake of learning, rather than doing the bare minimum to graduate. If your child only takes four years rather than five because they started in 9th rather than 8th, that will be fine because seeing it through to graduation instead bailing after two years says a lot about your child. And even if your child does take only two years of foreign language, if they replaced it with a rigorous curriculum in a different subject area rather than extra study halls, I doubt the foreign language thing is going to make the difference.[/quote]
