Certamen!

Every Thursday 2:30-3:30

On Thursdays, we hold Certamen practice to prepare our members for competitions. The first 30 minutes is dedicated to Novice (Latin I) practice, and the last 3o mins is dedicated to Intermediate (Latin II) practice. While one group practices, the other writes questions for Certamen rounds.

​

What is Certamen?

Certamen is a game of fast facts and speed. Tournaments are held on the local, state, and national levels.

 

Certamen is played in 2 categories: Open or Competitive Certamen. Open Certamen is more laid-back and is best for those who are not on a certamen team while Competitive Certamen is more fast-paced and counts for points toward your school at competitions.

 

There are 3 divisions of Competitive Certamen: Novice, Intermediate, and Advanced.
