Please provide details of someone we can ask for some more academic information - if you are already studying Latin, this should be whoever is most closely involved in teaching you and ideally knows you well.

Please give specific details (e. g. Aeneid 2, lines 23-400 in Latin, rather than just Aeneid 2) and state if it was as a GCSE or A Level set text. This is particularly important if you have not been taught Latin for a while but have been reading anything by yourself to get back up to speed. NEAR BEGINNERS - if you are a near-beginner with 2 years' experience or less, it would be very useful to know what basic grammar you have met - please tell us whether you have been introduced to subjunctives, participles (including ablative absolutes) and/or indirect statements. IF YOU HAVE NOT STUDIED LATIN FOR MORE THAN A YEAR - please tell us roughly when you read these texts. (We get students with various experiences who can be quite hard to place in a group if we do not know enough about them.)
