Etherion 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2004 Here in Greece we start at 8:30 and finish at 1:30. We usually don't change classes but it depends on the lesson...For example Biology is done in the biology class etc etc etc....Things are truly difficult and the exams are academic level.

pupke 0 Report post Posted August 1, 2004 I come from the netherlands and go to school there. It's very relaxed because every hour we have a diffrent teacher. he have to be at school at 8.40 hours and when we get to leave depends on the day. the longest day is until 15.30 hours. We have two hours of gym a week and one hour of music (if you've picked it at the beginning of the school year. We're allowed to stay in school to study or just surf the we until 5 o'clock.

You guys really must be enjoying life!!Sometimes we can have the same teacher for 2 hours in a row!! omg, and you guys gett o change teachers so often...and from what you have said, it seems that you can chhose your own subjects you want to take up...but in Singapore, its all the SAME...

Vacant 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2004 I live In England, Im 15: my school is immensely dull, we study from 9AM to 3:30PM, but then we get coursework, so the "fun" doesnt stop there. Its killing me, slowly. Okay, maybe not, but its kind of harsh. We do ordinary boring subjects: English, Maths, Science etc. Not very inspiring. Im leaving soon tho no idea what I wanna do....

GameDev 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2004 Well, in the Southeast USA(stereotypically known as the dumbest part of the industrialised world) here is how our school works.Age 4-5: KindergartenAge 5-10: Elementary School( 1st-5th Grade)Age 11-14: Middle School( 6th-8th Grade)Age 14-18: High School (9th-12th Grade)In high school, we go to school from 8:00 AM to 2:50 PM. We have 4 classes a day(unless you're in the 12th grade, in which case you can have less) for 1 1/2 hours with a 30 minute lunch. About 3/4 of your classes are required and you get to choose the other 1/4. After high school, you either do 1 of 4 things:1. Go to a 4-year college.2. Got to a 2 year tech school or community college.3. Join the military.4. Get a service or manufacturing job(highly unreccomended, but some people do that, especially if their family owns a business).
