  It was just the way my school organised their blocks of subject options. We all had to take at least one modern language, but a humanity wasn’t compulsory (we did IGCSE maths, so couldn’t get the English Baccalaureate anyway), and there were languages in all the option blocks.
  
  Geography was never my favourite subject, and the history syllabus was mostly post-WW1 and the Cold War, which I didn’t like as much as earlier time periods. In Latin you do a section on Classical Civilisation, as well as the language, which I really enjoyed.
  
  I found languages easy, and I also preferred exams to coursework, so doing all languages suited me! I was also pretty sure that I’d end up doing science, so didn’t want to drop to double award, even though that would have allowed me to do another subject.
