[quote=Anonymous]Both my kids dropped language after their junior year. One kid opted for a second science class, the other for a second math class. They just weren't interested in foreign language, and perhaps as a result their lowest grades were in foreign language. One could argue that a A in linear algebra was more helpful for college admissions than another B in a French class (which was the scenario for DS#1). He was admitted to a top 20 university but not an Ivy. I do agree with a PP that by senior year, kids earn the right to decide what is important to them. [/quote]
