<p>Does she have any idea where she wants to go to college yet? A few of the schools we have looked at do not allow credit from AP or dual credit classes to count for any major/minor credits. They only apply to the general ed credits. Other schools we have looked at give a lot of credit for a 4 or 5 on the Spanish AP–the last one we looked at gives 10 credits. Look on-line or have her call the schools to see what their exact policy is for AP credits and major/minor courses.</p>
<p>Another suggestion would be to meet with the guidance counselor and see if they can get her into AP Spanish. Maybe her teacher can give her a placement test or even just talk to the counselor. I’m a little surprised that they are so rigid in their course selection and have no opportunities for kids to move into the right levels.</p>
