[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The top colleges want to see everything thru to the AP level, including FL. Other colleges don't care so much. [/quote] "4 years [b]or[/b] AP" seems to be rough consensus for a "complete" HS education in foreign language. [/quote] No, AP is regarded as the most rigorous level, and the top colleges (Ivy League) generally want to see that in every single subject.[/quote] But with language classes, the ship has sailed on the AP question before HS begins. Yes, take AP over the non-AP version of the course if you have the option (if you want the most rigorous path). But you have to have begun language in a certain year (in MS) to be ready for AP by junior or senior year. [/quote] This is a MCPS concept. Lots of schools in the hinterlands offer AP as the 4th year. (Not saying that those students do remarkably well on the tests by comparison, but that's the situation)[/quote]
