i took 3 semesters at a previous university, as that was the requirement. but it was a long time ago and in the years since i’ve barely spoken a word of the language. i doubt i’d be proficient enough to test into 2nd semester, much less 4th. i’d love to be bilingual but in this instance it seems the opportunity cost is measured in 3 or 4 courses whose place these lang req will take.

don’t get me wrong. i am ecstatic about my entrance to columbia gs. the language requirement is a small setback for me in the big scheme of things so i’m trying to keep it in perspective.
