[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“That’s one of the problems with IB,” It’s not really an IB problem. Colleges prefer to see 4 years of the same language not 1 or 2 years of one and 2 or 3 years of another, even if you’re not in IB. This kid could have fixed the issue and done the IB diploma if they’d gotten on top of it soon enough. They didn’t, and that’s not an IB problem. [/quote] I think that rising Juniors are going to be the last cohort where FL progression was messed up due to Covid. My DC is a rising SR and has 2 different languages because learning a FL over PowerPoint, with no speaking interaction, for levels 1-2 during Covid was ineffective. Then they were expected to keep up with the normal sequence and take year 3 as if they had gotten a normal curriculum the past 2 years. Many kids opted to start fresh with a new language and do the 2 and 2 route. [/quote]
