[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you all very much for your input. I will share these thoughts with my son. FWIW, he is a white male without any "hooks." He plays a few sports (one varsity, two rec), has a small part-time job, attends one minor club once a month. So it sounds like the bottom line is that he has a good chance of getting into UVA with his current scores/schedule, but he has a much better chance of getting into UVA by taking Spanish 4. It will be interesting to see what he decides.[/quote] DP. I don’t think you can conclude that chances are much better with an additional year of language. And I don’t think anyone can point us to anything supporting this conclusion. But it does appear that everything else equal an extra year of language should be marginally helpful. Also, as some posters pointed out, your DC will have to fulfil language requirements at UVA, which might be tough after not practicing the language for two years[/quote]
