[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can parents whose kids are in college now and didn't take language senior year post about admissions? Would you mind sharing where kids got in?[/quote] This will probably vary by college, student, and HS, but our experiences: DC1 reached AP in their language by junior year. Was told it would be “devastating” to college chances if they didn’t take. So they did. Did not enjoy the experience and didn’t do well on the AP exam. Had enough other things going for them though so got into a top 10 LAC. A classmate ignored the school and went to Stanford. DC2 opted not to take AP foreign lang their senior year. Also got into a top 10 LAC, but now wonders if it would’ve been better to take the AP language to test out of college’s own graduation requirement. However, they did enjoy immensely the HS electives they took in place of the AP language, to the point that they might influence college major decision. [/quote]
