What verb do you use for 'do a subject' e.g. "I don't know whether to do german next year."

Americans would most likely say "take a subject"/"take german"

I am trying to say "I don't know whether to do german next year."

Thank you!

    "No sé si coger/tomar alemán el año que viene".
     
    I would use coger (take) or hacer (do) if it is a subject at school or university. But if it is about a course outside this institutions I woul use "hacer": Quiero hacer un curso de cocina.
