[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess the question is whether you need to take three years of French in high school or just get the level of  French 3 which you can usually do with two years of college and one middle school.[/quote]

I think we have said it may depend on the college, but [b]several of us have posted experience with successful college applications with only two years of language in HS[/b]. [/quote]

This question about language is asked every couple of months, people show up to categorically state that you need 4 years of language, parents of kids (like us) who had good college outcomes with 2 -3 years of language pipe in to say, "mm..not really", and more 4-yearsers show up to drown us out.. :lol:  :lol:

YOU DON'T NEED 4 YEARS OF LANGUAGE IN HIGH SCHOOL[/quote]

But what about what Dean J wrote on a blog once? I follow her like a God and do everything she says. I am so in awe of her I can’t even say her entire name.[/quote]

We love Dean J and treated every word of hers like gospel. I'm the parent that posted about college outcomes for 2 of my kids with different profiles. DC1 applied and got into UVA with 3 years of language (1+2). He loved UVA but eventually chose to go elsewhere.

DC2 did not have the profile for UVA. He did 4 years of language (1+3). No AP. Got into several colleges without issues.

BTW, Dean J also doesn't say that UVA protects yield (or manages yield) ..or maybe she says they don't). They do. Tons of posts on here and we also know several kids with great profiles that are not admitted.  So take what people in the business say with a grain of salt.

She def. is still one of the best in the business..[/quote]

Lol another one of the “got into several colleges without issues” poster.  What exactly does that mean?  Virtually anybody can get into college “without issues” by applying to the right colleges.  [/quote]

Lol. Another one of the 'drunk on a-hole juice' poster. What brand of juice do you drink?[/quote]
