I took the mandatory year when I was 15. Those who went with humanities did two more years alongside classical Greek, but I chose sciences.

Rather liked it, but I've always enjoyed foreign languages.

I dont know that it was offered at any school I went to.  I room a couple of years of French in high school and a couple of years of Spanish in college.

There is one neat benefit from learning Latin.  You get to see how words are connected to one another.

I like how in English there will be some Indo-European root word that will then make its way into English in multiple forms from multiple paths.  Like the Indo-European Word for 'Father' became different words in Latin and Germanic and we have both.  'Hey that word looks and sounds alot like a word we already have and it means the same thing...but what the heck we'll take it.'
