Neither could I...
So how are you feeling for it?
The big passage should be okay for me - I hope; but the Cicero on the other hand... I'm praying that it's not too horrible. I do really like Latin but the grammar :redface:

Feeling more confident for the Lit., need to actually learn it properly first though! :wink:

You're doing the Cicero for the 30 marker ? :0

I think I prefer the language but hopefully the Lit will be okay too >.<
I'm not ready for this:frown:

How well do you know vocab / grammar?
You still have a whole day to cram what you can!

Oh that's bad luck.... :frown:
Good luck on both the exams!

I'd just cram the vocab, the grammar you could possibly work out from context :biggrin:

Anyone got any help for Cicero Section B?
I'll post my translations for 2012 and 2014 Cicero Section B
and my 70/70 translation for 2013 Section A
I would gladly accept any critiques, own attempts, obscure bits of vocab or constructions that you've picked up from past papers.
:smile:



Am I the only one here doing the English to Latin? x3

Well, it's easy to do both unseens in 30-40 mins, so he could give the other question a go as well...

I suppose, but I also leave time to check everything is alright.... I mean, only one of those is going to be marked.
Which leads to a question. Which one will be marked if both section Bs are done?

One hour is much, much, much more than we need to check our work. I almost died of boredom when I had a few mocks...

The one with the higher marks, if I remember correctly.

Remember to focus on perfecting the Section A, since it's worth 70 marks.
