[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Colleges don't look at middle school courses. You can take a language level 1 course in high school. [/quote] But in MCPS languages taken in middle school are for high school credit and show up on the kid’s transcript. [/quote] This. If your kid is college-bound, colleges want to see at least 4 years. Knocking out a couple of them out in MS frees up the HS schedule for other electives. Or maybe taking 6 years, which strengthens the college application considerably.[/quote] We decide to switch to a new language entering Grade 9. It may be overwhelming to take level 4 at 9th grade and continue for 4 years. It looks like some top colleges expect applicants to have 4 years of FL, taken in high school. It does not seem to matter much regarding the level of chosen FL. [/quote]
