message: Um, this article looks like it was copied directly from their website, as 68.48.32.65 said. It is currently not in encyclopedic format. The whole interpretative/interpersonal/presentative thing seems a little too general for this sort of article. Much revision is needed. --Grenadier 21:09, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I just finished the re-editing (overhaul, in a way) of this article. I mostly took out paragraphs I thought were unnecessary and added some touches here and there. However, I left the general framework intact. If I deleted any info that was important, I apologize. Physicq210 04:03, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  incongruity 

message: This article had no citations, so I was searching around for some to add. In doing so, I added this college board page, and noticed that some of the information in the article is contradicted there. 
For example, the article reads, "Designed to be comparable to a fourth semester or equivalent college/university courses in Cantonese Chinese and Mandarin Chinese[2]..."
However, the website above clearly states, "On which Chinese dialect is the AP Chinese Language and Culture Exam based? The AP Chinese Language and Culture course and examination is based on Mandarin/Putonghua Chinese."
I find no mention of Cantonese testing.
Anyone else? Can I modify that fragment to read, 
"Designed to be comparable to a fourth semester or equivalent college/university courses in Mandarin (Putonghua) Chinese[2]..."?

thread_title:  Cantonese? Really? 

message: This statement: "these college courses deepen the students’ immersion into the language and culture of the Chinese-speaking world" either implies or wrongly states that the class is a college course. While college level, it is clearly a high school course, like all other AP (advanced placement) courses from CollegeBoard: this CollegeBoard site calls it preparation for college.
What's the clearest way to fix this? "these high school courses deepen the students’ immersion into the language and culture of the Chinese-speaking world," ""these college-level courses deepen the students’ immersion into the language and culture of the Chinese-speaking world," or something else? It would not be correct to say ""these college-credit courses deepen the students’ immersion into the language and culture of the Chinese-speaking world" because the granting of college credit for an AP class varies based on university requirements and AP exam test scores.
