Nah, I'm at a Sixth Form College, the rules are a bit different. I can only take four but I'm welcome to come back and take another one but I don't want to be in college at 21 xD

In college? Awesome, that's a great combo! They always seem to want to get kids to do a mixture of things but then nothing that will not go with the other courses at all (Weird, I know) but all my subjects fit into the same category they have! (Classics goes with everything really!)

Mixing is only if you don't have a clue what you want to do, so you don't limit your options

Yeah, basically xD

That and I'm too indecisive to pick an actual path I chose the best/my favourite subjects

I did the same with English Lang (Lit is good but Lang has a more creative side!) and Classic's is something a friend is doing and she said its great and stuff so I thought what the hey and decided against my original choice (art) and changed it to Classics instead

That works Of my ones, the only one which remotely ties to what I ended up doing is Maths.

Argh, how you can do Maths past what you're forced to do in school/college is a mystery to me. It mindlessly bores me xD

What did you do, Lowri?

There's SO much about classics at my school, you should come here We actually offer Ancient Greek & Latin as both GCSEs and A-Levels

I like Maths, it makes sense I don't think it's too hard and the teacher's awesome Although she keeps saying I'm too much like Luke :/

I wanted to do Latin in college but they don't have any classes there and no-one who could actually teach it me

You do it if you're good at it and practically guaranteed of getting an A

Maths, Chemistry, Biology, Psychology at AS level. I was sticking to the sciences cause I was applying for Medicine.

And those are classic languages, I think what Holly's considering is different/more varied.

I had to do Latin for 3 years, trust me, it's the worse subject ever

Why would you want to study Latin?

I already know how to read and write basic words from the Latin language I'm sure I could keep up

I wish I could do Psychology but we don't offer it That's cool

And I know But all the people I know who are doing classics are doing the languages as well

It's not impossible, it's just so boring - you don't learn how to say anything interesting - or to say anything at all

Gonna to bed, talk Saturday or after school tomorrow xxxxx

It's not that I'd be questioning Why Latin? If you wanted to do languages, wouldn't you want ones which are still living?

Night Pips xxxxxxxx

Latin has a stronger reading side than pronouncing side I think xD

Latin is still pretty much alive! I just like it, and it would contribute towards my writing

Night Pips x

I think Pippy's pointing out the limited uses

Alive? Who speaks it as a language? It's used in religious ceremonies and scientific naming, that's pretty much it. Unless you wanted to be translating old texts.
