What do I do if i can't find a way to prove my ec?
Answered

Hello :)

I am teaching myself Ancient Greek. I really like this ec, and progress is good. It is relevant to my intended major because I would like to do History. Unfortunately, I can't find a way to prove I've actually learnt it. I do have my notebook where I take notes and do exercises, but I don't know if that's enough. Please Help!

A way to do it is to do a project/translate something such as famous speech or write a blog in Greek with English translation at the bottom or something similiar

Hope this helps

This is very helpful I hadn't even thought of this. Thanks so much! If I translate a speech, would I include it in my college application?

@DebaterMAX4 years ago

I’m going based off of CommonApp and to a lesser degree the Coalition App but you don’t include the link or the text of the speech.

Title Know Ancient Greek

Then a 150 character discription of what you do and your achievements with that

[🎤 AUTHOR]@boop4 years ago

Sorry to keep bothering you, are you talking about the ec description section?

@DebaterMAX4 years ago

Yes so you pick the type of EC I believe it would be foreign langauage you say Ancient Greek and give a Up to 150 character discription describing accolades and achievements

Such as I translated the Gettyburgs address to Ancient Greek and have become fluent in Ancient Greek. I also blog in Greek to practice.

Not exactly but use your own description
