john_wrot Posted October 31, 2019 Report Share Posted October 31, 2019 I am currently a student taking IB and a subject I have been quite struggling with is SL Spanish. I have taken Spanish for 3 years prior but I still have been finding it very difficult to keep up with classmates and do well in tests. I was wondering if it was possible to move down to AB Initio Spanish even though I have prior experience in that language. I have asked my IB coordinater and she said no. Is there any where I can find the offical regulations to this. Also would like to know where she gets this information from because she would not tell me where it says. Thanks Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunsally Posted December 17, 2019 Report Share Posted December 17, 2019 I am currently taking Spanish ab initio. According to the IB website, " language ab initio course is a language acquisition course for students with no prior experience of the target language, or for those students with very limited previous experience". So you are not eligible to take Spanish ab initio after 3 years with the language. Hope this helps! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
