Colleges might care a little. If you are applying towards stanford and some other guy is also. If you have the same exact grades as him, but if you take an extra year of spanish! then stranford would take you in because they know that you have more potentionl! Also you have an A+ and that means it will also give you a pretty good GPA. Also if you need another selective just take Spanish. =P

Some colleges might, but from personal experience, YES!!! take the class. I wish I would have keep up with that. I took what was required and quit. You should be looking past college. And I will tell you that speaking a second language fluently is a HUGE plus. You will have a SIGNIFICANT leg up on your competition out of college if you can speak anyhting other than English. So I would encourage you to continue taking it in college as well and even go on study abroad to help perfect your skills. I know it seems tideous now, but you WILL NOT regret doing this later.

I'm a huge proponent of language education. My daughter took all the Spanish available (12 years) and graduated high school with a fair knowledge of Spanish. Then she decided to study abroad--you guessed it. In Barcelona. Her spanish learning was essential and it was SO much fun going to college in another country for a semester.
Colleges like for you to take the most advanced classes that are available at your school. They also may give you advanced credit for some of the upper-level courses you took in high school. My daughter received two years credit for her spanish.
Lastly, we all know that learning another language expands our ability to think. It expands our learning ability in other subjects and it may come in handy one day.
Senior year should be fun and not too hard, but try to squeeze in Spanish if you can.

Yes, I would definitely recommend it. Colleges like to look for consistency, and taking spanish for four years will show that you stick to things. And, it seems like its not too difficult for you so it shouldn't be so hard for you to handle in senior year with your applications.
Also, perhaps you might be able to take an AP/SAT II exam that will give you credit in college because most colleges have a foreign language requirement. And, in today's world, being able to speak a foreign language with some competence is very important.

I would encourage you to look beyond college and look at life. The more of any language you know the more opportunities you will have. Your mind will be better trained. Spanish is a great ticket to many fields and any other skills or area of study will just be enchanced. You will be more marketable. Go For IT!!!!

Its not as much about colleges as jobs. If you learn fluent Spanish and can speak it along with English employers will pay you more and hire you faster. Take the class.

If you're really good at it, you should definitely take it. You must enjoy it, to be so proficient. Have you thought of your college major and career? Having good conversational and written Spanish can open many doors in life. Good luck.

Heres how I make it... continuously use Goya Rice, medium grain. while you're making 4 cups of rice you like 4 a million/2 of water. be certain you rinse rice with chilly water first perfect in the previous you boil. on your caldero placed the 4 a million/2 cups of water, purely a touch of oil and salt and convey it to a boil. upload the rinsed upward push and stir all of it to the middle... particularly. placed the hide on and shrink warmth to 2 notches in the previous medium. enable it prepare dinner for greater or less 20 minutes without touching it!!! secret is to no longer raise hide. 20 minutes later returned stir it to the middle and canopy for yet another quarter-hour. Your rice would be waiting. in case you employ greater rice upload greater time. good success it takes prepare. you asked 4 undeniable white rice no longer colored... i dont get it

if spanish is easy for you, and you need a filler class then yes. do colleges REALLY care, not really. they just care if you have the required credits to get in.
