A baccalauréat in two modern languages


Explanation:
Perhaps a footnote could be added to translate 'bac' but I think it's common for the word not to be translated.

A Levels Modern Languages (two languages)


Explanation:
Le Bac is the equivalent to A Levels and must be never confused with BAs; in this case, I would specify two languages to enhance this person's linguistic options.

Hope it helps!

agree  ydmills: Nothing quite like A levels in France but yes, Bac is the nearest equivalent. It does tend to be more general than A levels however.
