So...I'm confused about the Core.

Actually, the Latin placement exam is known to be quite difficult. On the bright side, if you take the AP Latin exam and score a 3,4, or 5 on it, you can place into higher level Latin. I believe it’s the only language for which we accept a 3 on an AP exam.</p>

<p>On the bright side, our Classics department and Latin and Greek classes are fantastic.

<p>After reading about the difficult Latin test, my D was a bit scared, but it sounds like she could still possibly place into the higher class even if not doing well on the pacement test? She is a possible Classics major/minor and has had HS experience in Latin (through the 2 APs, 4 on Lit last year) Greek (2 yrs) Chinese (2 yrs) so should take all three placement tests I assume. Don’t think she will continue with Chinese but was interested in the accelerated first year Greek sequence.</p>
