err yeahh.
I was gonna do three years of language, so I took korean 1-2 last year, hoping to take 3-4 this year and 5-6 next year ( we only have up to 5-6 in our school) but...my korean teacher got so mad about how I was in 1-2 when I was fluent, and put me in 5-6 for this year = I'm only taking 2 years of the same language....
should I take another language class senior year in a different language? or at a community college or something? because I'll only have 2 years. >__>"

i'm not positive on this, but i think if you show your proficiency in a language, that's good enough.

but if you're really into korean, i would suggest taking it as independent study (you're going to have to work with the teacher about this, though).

uhhh
I'm not really into korean.
I did it for an easy A.
I'm actually really fluent. (Even though I'm born in the U.S, korean is actually my first language. =X but I'm still better at english -- english is my best subject actually...)
My teacher wanted me to be in 5-6 last year, and just have one year of foreign language. =___="

In many colleges if you already speak a particular language then you cannot usually take classes in that language..They will screen you before college starts, give you placement exams, ask you questions about your fluency in it especially if you're Korean...They will most likely put you into heritage learning classes (which if you're fluent would be useless) or independent study class (your time would be spent better elsewhere)
One of my majors is Japanese, and I already speak it even though I'm not Japanese and despite it being my major they refused to let me in anything below professional or classical level courses (500+ graduate level stuff) so it would probably be the same for you if your major somehow pertains to Korea

This doesn't stop most Koreans though, you'll find out that Korean 101 is usually full of Korean Americans who want an easy A and thus have purposely flunked their placement exams to feign ineptness in the language
