Overview

<

Advanced Extension Awards are new qualifications intended to challenge the most able Advanced GCE candidates. They are designed to provide opportunities for candidates to demonstrate a greater depth of understanding than that required at Advanced GCE and to demonstrate the ability to think critically and creatively.

The Latin AEA consists of a single three-hour examination. The question paper consists of three questions. The first two questions are passages of unprepared Latin for translation into good, fluent English. The third question is based on one or more passages of Latin. A variety of comment questions will be set. These are designed to test understanding and personal response. Two grades are available, Distinction and Merit.

AEA Latin is suitable for candidates wishing to test their skills and knowledge at a level beyond that of the Advanced GCE. It does not presuppose the study of a particular specification and is designed to be accessible to all Advanced GCE Latin candidates who are likely to achieve an A grade.

AEA Latin is first available in June 2002 and thereafter in each June examination session.
