Latin SACs?

For me personally, I'm finding Latin reasonable at the moment. We have around 40 students doing Latin at my school... most of them are pretty damn smart. I'm averaging 70% on unseen translations which is nothing compared to some guys in my class who nearly always get 100%.

As I was told, the grammar at Year 12 level doesn't get that much harder than Year 11. I agree on the translations; we were told the constructions in unseen translations will become progressively more complex and difficult. We do weekly unseen translations.

Forty students...?! That's like 30% of the entire cohort of Latin students in the whole of Australia.. my school only has 9 Latin students.

Yeh, we have two Latin classes with about 20-ish students in each. Since the.watchman rarely posts these days, I can safely say he is currently near the top of our cohort. He's acing most unseen translations... and he only picked up Latin in Year 9.
binders:
er, isn't the vce cohort usually about 150?
werdna:
Yes, 40 out of 150 is roughly 30%.
