So you've not done Sagae Thessalae? because tons of my 2nd lit paper was on Sagae Thessalae, then there was a little bit at the end where we translated some Pliny, (from the Blaesus section).

If your Aeneid paper is the same as mine (although mine did look like it was a department written one on the outside, but the mocks are supposed to be past papers right?) Theres a 10 marker on the extended Bulls simile.

Those are the main things I remember. :smile:

Do you remember what part the 5 mark translation is? Thats a main part I have to nail. And for Sagae Thessalae, we haven't done the text yet so it isn't going to be on the paper. Also what are the questions like? Any latin needed to be translated? (I'm concentrating on the Aenied for now )

Well the 5 marker I got was the bit about Jupiter holding up 2 scales. A lot of the questions ask you to refer to the Latin, so any Latin you quote needs to be translated
I haven't done a 2012 paper mock on the Aeniad yet, as I'm doing that now, but the 5-marker for the sagae thessalae is about the weasel turning and leaving :smile:

I had it today, I was really scared but it was nothing to be that worried about! I hadn't learnt the Aenied at all, but I just made it all up and I think I got 50% in the exam. Thats fine for me, as if I had learnt it I would of gotten a lot higher.
P.s. We had the 2013 paper, I think your paper was a department one x

Oh sorry, I realised it probably was after I told you, we haven't quite finished learning the Aeneid :s-smilie: the other lit paper was definitely the 2013 paper though :smile:
