Foreign language?

French

I will probably learn German, Spanish or Russian (or a combination), because most scientists outside of America/UK are German or Russian, apparently.

.....

I take French and I hate it. I don't really hate the language itself, but the way it's taught in my school.

In my school, they teach you a rule and tell you to always do that, no matter what. Then the next year, they tell you that that was all a lie and you only do that in rare circumstances, and this new way is the right way. The next year, they do the same thing. It goes on and on and on.

Also, every year we have to crunch all of our material into 4-5 months instead of the full year because we must go over everything from 6th grade to whatever grade you happen to be in at the moment.
