I went to a mediocre high school, where Latin ended after the second year. But even that much helped with high school German, college French, and subsequent experiments with other Romance languages.

Strangely Latin was the third Romance language I learnt (and the first two helped with Latin) but Latin taught me to properly think about grammar and proper sentence construction more than any other language.
