i like piling all my tables and grammar notes into one folder and regularly revising them/testing myself to ingrain them into my head. Also, before tests, i spam vocab flashcards (mostly on anki but the other types are fine) and practice unseen translations. For this I usually dig them up on school archives or translate unread textbook passages just ahead of where the class is up to.

Studying for comment/analysis is a little more complicated imo. After every test, I find that writing down the feedback and letting it accumulate over several tests is really helpful. Then practice comment questions are useful as well; the class asks the teacher for sample questions and these can be modified to any texts, especially if you know what you'll be tested on.

but this is just what i've been doing for the past few years!! i'm in y10 and most likely doing latin in senior years. what year are you in?

I'm replying one year late but it's cause I see that you're active. How did your test go? I have a latin test in 20 days which I have not studied for.

HAHA this is funny i dont really remember what i got to be completely honest but im pretty sure i did the best in that test than my others cos i gen was gettign like average 50ish percent for all of them and then for that one i may have gotten 70-80...?? i really was horrible at latin so not sure if the teacher was marking lenient esp cos she knew i was dropping but heh i remember being quite happy cos i did way better than i expected. BUT U GOT THIS lock in!!!!! or dont
