If he..., he must as well...
“If you are to be proficient in Chinese literature, you must as well be fluent in the language.”
(Meaning: You will have to be fluent in the language if you want to be proficient in chinese lit.)
Is this sentence grammatical by any chance? I know “as well” is usually placed at the end of a sentence, but does this sound grammatical to you guys?

Wherever it is placed, "as well" seems superfluous to requirements. In fact, to me, the whole statement seems superfluous to requirements. Is it not self-evident?
