Sebastian (a lady) Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Heads up for high schoolers doing Latin. The SAT Subject test for Latin is only offered in Dec and June. We had planned on the June exam last year but had conflicts with other big commitments and had to defer until a fall sitting. But that meant my oldest wont be able to take the Latin exam. Subject tests can be taken at any point in high school. Many peoe reccomendation taking them right after the course in question. They are one hour exams and a student can take up to three in a test sitting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyforlatin Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 I was just wondering about this since DD is now in Latin 2 with Lukeion. I think I read here that it's best to take SAT Latin right after Latin 2b so basically after finishing up Wheelock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ds will be partway through AP Latin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyforlatin Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 She's planning to go through Latin 4 with Lukeion, so she'll take AP Latin afterwards, if we can find a seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kareni Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 My daughter took the Latin Subject test after completing AP Latin. Regards, Kareni 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyforlatin Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I wouldn't mind if DD didn't take the SAT Latin until after 4b. Next June seems too soon especially since we've rarely had any serious tests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gratia271 Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 My oldest daughter took it December during the year she was enrolled in AP Latin. People I know have had great success in attaining high scores after Latin 3 as well as during or Post-AP. It depends on how much review the student wants to do and/or how easy retention of minutiae is for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
