Not sure I understand the importance of “slow” or the high school pgm comparisons? How does that help with the dilemma? I mean if you look at the pace of how the typical high school core:foreign language, science, math, history, and english…these classes are all slowly drawn out compared to their intro college course counterparts. What makes his pgm unique is that these classes are not electives. In TX these CS classes count as a math, science, or foreign lang credit. TX is the only state that has this distinction. Not to mention the TX HS Endorsements.
Also, the purpose of my posting this concern was not to compare h.s. comp sci programs or get college credit for CS…I just needed guidance on the foreign lang component in competitive college admissions/merit aid.
