Default A course selection conundrum

As I go into my final year of my BA, I face an interesting dilemma. My plan was to take eight courses next year. There would be one English course to complete my major, and three political science to complete my minor. But beyond that, I intended to take two French courses, as well as two history courses.

There are two other French courses I am finding tempting. But because I could not change anything related to my major and minor, I would surely have to take them instead of the history courses I had planned to take.

Ideally, if I were to go into teaching as I would really like, I would like to make French my second area of teaching other than English. I really regret not having taken more French, as opposed to some of the other courses I took, such as history or psychology. So I now have the chance to do exactly that. And all four French courses would be with a professor I have had before, in whose classes I got an "A" and an "A-" in.

But on the other side of the conundrum, there is those history classes. Back when I was intending to make history my minor, I took a survey course on the history of scientific discovery, and it is the single most interesting history course of all the one I took. The two courses I was looking at are a more indepth examination of that. And I did get a "B" in that class, so I would certainly not be risking my GPA. I would hate to lose two courses I am looking forward to so much.

What do I do?
