[quote=Anonymous]What schools is she aiming for? This can help inform your decision. I’d probably have my child drop language and do band if music is a passion but my current HS kid (and current college kids) isn’t expecting to go to a T20 or even T30. My college kids are happily at UMD and didn’t need 4 years of language. I realize your child may be aiming much higher but I mention this because lots of top students at their W school ended up at UMD and while good grades and challenging classes were important, I think that some of them made a lot of unnecessary sacrifices. If your child loves music, wants to study bio and has an internship opportunity, I think that I’d focus on that rather than trying to find a way to squeeze in another year of language. [/quote]
