Does knowing more foreign languages help you get accepted into college?
Instead of taking many Advanced Placement (AP) classes, you decide to take only a couple, but at the same time, you are able to take many SAT subject tests on foreign languages.
does this have the same weight as these AP classes? would a school such as Harvard accept your application purely because you know so many languages?
What is best software for learning foreign languages?
I am seriously interested in learning some foreign languages, and was wondering if anyone here could recommend the best software for learning on my own. I am especially interested in spanish and arabic. I know absolutely nothing about either language so I’ll need something that starts at the absolute beginner level. I have looked at several different software packages, but was not sure which one would be the best to start with. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

How does one become a professor of foreign languages?
I am fluent in Italian and I think it would be awesome to teach Italian..it would probably be at the college level becuase I usually never hear of high schools or junior high schools offering Italian..maybe private high schools do, but I’m not sure. What kind of degrees would I need? A Master’s and PhD in Italian? Also, would I need to be fluent in another language? It seems most of my professors in undergrad who taught a foreign language knew at least 2 languages.
