Depends if you want to take advantage of the extras at your new school. By taking the AP classes, you can really get a leg up on the classes for your first year of college. This will save you time and money. However, the classes take work and there is a test at the end that you have to pass in order to get the credits. A foreign language is also very worthwhile, particularly if you are college bound. Otherwise, take Spanish; you will most probably find a use for it in your lifetime.

Where does a language translator go to school?

A language translator can attend a university or college that offers programs in translation and interpretation, linguistics, or foreign languages.

Graduate degrees in translation studies or related fields can also provide advanced training for aspiring translators.


Can self studying a language in highschool count towards college credit?

The short answer is no. When you take a foreign language in high school, colleges are able to rely on the fact that you learned the language well enough pass the classes. If you are studying a language on your own, they have no way to verify what you have learned. It's possible that some colleges may have an exam that you can take to prove your foreign language skills; however, I don't know of any colleges that do that.

If somebody wants to major in science in college then is it a good idea to do physics instead of a fourth year of a foreign language?

I feel as if the person should do Physics instead of 4th year in foreign language. [EDIT] I'd say take the foreign language course instead because colleges like to see that you have 4 years of one foreign language. If you want to major in physics, then wait until college to start on your physics major. Until then, focus on getting into college first.


What classes should you take to get into a 4 year college after high school?
