Side note: I don't generally put much weight on the FSI numbers. Sure they provide a useful ranking of how long it takes to learn various languages (e.g., Spanish < Polish < Arabic), but I'd recommend ignoring their actual time estimates.

Most people don't learn languages at the FSI so to expect it will take you as long is not accurate. It may take you way longer, or maybe you'll be way faster depending on how good you are at learning languages and how much time you're putting in each day.

But yeah, to summarize, the FSI rankings are good, but I don't agree with the actual estimates.
