<p>I was accepted the prep school that I applied to and I'm in the process of choosing my classes for next year.</p>
<p>English I
French II
Geometry Honors
World History I: Ancient and Medieval History
Concert Band
Intro to Biology
Latin I</p>
<p>I will be self studying French I so I could start French II in the fall and I am thinking of self studying Latin I as well. My dad is fluent in French so he could help me with it, but I wouldn't be able to get any help with Latin. Is Latin I really hard to study on your own? Should I wait to skip Latin II?</p>
<p>In my experience, it's pretty hard to self-study a language, even with motivation. My junior year of high school, I attempted to study French II on my own, although with my teacher's guidance. It didn't really work out, because I wasn't really motivated (I decided the next year just to stick with Spanish V). And self-studying two languages...</p>
<p>But then again, you could be much more motivated than I am.</p>
<p>Otherwise, awesome schedule. World history is always interesting (now that actually is something you can self-study... history, I mean). And band! Yay music! :)</p>
<p>ETA: Basically, the difficult thing about learning a language on your own is that you can't really practice it. In a classroom environment, you have to speak it at times, but at home, you don't really have someone to talk to in that language (French, yes, but not Latin).</p>
<p>Latin I is easy to self-study if you have some background in some related languages. I.E taking spanish the year before and THEN starting to learn Latin I. I guess if you start French first then Latin will be easy for you.</p>
<p>Ya, Latin should be really easy if you have former experience with linguistics (especially French or Spanish). But if your not really self-motivated, it'd probably be best to stick to Latin I.</p>
