Compares effects of three grade-six late immersion programs in British Columbia which differed in amount of instructional time in French (90 percent vs 60 percent), previous student French background, and use of selection criteria. Significant differences occurred in attitudes, but not in French comprehension, English achievement, mathematics, science, or social studies. (Author/AH)
