[quote=Anonymous]Endless discussions of this on college forum. For highly competitive schools, it's not about the total number of years studied if kid started in MS, but about reaching the highest level offered by the HS. It's the same as for all core subjects: they want to see kids taking the most rigorous classes offered. So for languages for which AP/IB are available, those schools ideally want to see applicants taking an AP/IB class (which may happen junior year or may happen senior year for most kids). I have no knowledge of what that means for ASL, but presumably it would mean taking through the highest level offered, but that would be a question to ask DC's HS's college counseling office. And of course there will be exceptions to all of this, but if DC wants to maximize chances, it's about getting to the highest level, not about taking 4 years if you are counting DC's MS years [/quote]
