I've recently become a bit interested in the Foreign Service, and I want to know how much my language skills would help a potential application. I'm a senior in college, and thanks to a high school AP class, I have the equivalent of 1 year of high school Spanish. Granted, I haven't really spoken Spanish in four years. Additionally, my school offers a only a year's worth of Arabic classes, which I'm enrolled in right now. Is an elementary understanding and command of these two languages worth anything?

I took the written exam yesterday, and I wished I had more time for the essay. Then again, I've wished that for every timed essay I've ever written, so I'm OK with it.

177.86! Turns out the second time is the charm.
