I was part of an immersion program from the first grade on so I was able to get ahead in spanish by taking spanish 1 in 7th grade, 2 In 8th, 3 in 9th and IB spanish 1 sl in 10th. The thing is I really really dislike spanish, it was getting to the point where the class was inhibiting me from performing well in other classes. I have no interest in doing anything related to spanish and my interest lie in science ( I want to do premed in college), so junior year I chose not to continue onto IB spanish 2 which is the highest possible spanish class you can take and doubled up on IB sciences(bio and chem). This year I’m planning on doubling and possibly tripling up on ib sciences but I’m worried that not taking a language junior and senior year despite having four high school language credits will hurt my chances at getting into top schools. My top choices are UNC (out of state) Miami and Rutgers. Should I drop a science and take Ib spanish 2 this year? I have a 4.2 weighted GPA and a 32 act plus good EC and essays and all my classes are IB
