college?? damn... america's schooling is confusing..
ovber here its...
primary from 6yrs to 12yrs old.Junior 1 thru to form 2
then ............
high school from 13yrs to 17yrs old form 3 thru to from 7

then decide if you want to further your study or just go work...but most dont make it thru high school.

how does america's schooling work?

you can always tell the people who are just trying to be a class clown and looking for the attention....its fucking rediculously gay....just be yourself

like me for example....i have two classes...my first class i hate the teacher and she hates me so m percieved as a bad kid in that class cuz i always argue with her and generally dont listen to or care what she thinks.....but in my second class i like the teacher and hes cool so im looked at as a good kid cuz i never argue with him and i follow all his rules.

Elementary School- Kindegarten (start when you are 4,5, or 6)- 4th grade
Middle School- 5th-8th grade
High School- 9th- 12 grade

College years depend on your profession. If you fail a grade you repeat it.

MadProphet 04-02-05 12:11 AM

america schooling =

elementary school from ages 5 - 11 (12)
middle school adges 12-13 (14)
high school 14 - 17 (or 18 depending on when your b-day is)

then after high school college and majors have varying school amounts

oh yeh..seem's the same just diffrent names for each grade.

I hated school and couldn't wait till I graduated. I think if I dropped out of college in 1999/2000, I would probably be further along doing what I'm doing now. In fact, back in 1999, the internet was still pretty new and making money online isn't as hard as today. But to tell the truth, getting a degree is still worth the time, effort, and lack of sleep.. and freshmen year at college kicks ass! Once you are out there working 9-5, going back to school is a lot harder. You end up finding a girl, then getting married, buying a house, having a kid... so you no longer have the time or money between work, buying diapers, and the mortgage to afford going back and getting a degree.

If you go to the census website, on average a worker with a bachelor's degree earns $51,206 a year compared to $27,915 of someone with a high school diploma. That is almost 2x more money. Your degree might be totally unrelated to what you end up doing in life, but it opens more doors. If you plan to work for a company/someone else, stay in school. It'll pay off in the long run. The 4 extra years in college is nothing compared to the 40 years of your life you'll spend working assuming you retire at 63.

^strobe shed his knowledge again lol

durban over here in new york the schools go like

elementary=kindergarten (4 or 5 years old) - 5th grade
junior high=6th-8th grade
high school=9th-12th grade, and you could pick a lot of your classes so it gets you ready for the feel of college
then you do college like a year later depending on your profession and you pick your classes shit like that

peace

some places it's different, like here in Houston in the different schools even in the same district it's the way others in here said it, but in some districts it...

Kindergarten - 4th grade *elementary*
5th grade + 6th grade *intermediate*
7th + 8th grade *middle school*
9th grade center *when the school is too big they seperate*
10th grade - 12th grade *high school* (if seperated, "main campus")

but yeah, sometimes I find that high school was a waste of my time because I really didn't learn much that I didn't know already...high school should prepare you for life but down here in TeXaS all they're worried about teaching you is what's on the "standardiZed test" you gotta take to graduate high school...down here, you can pass all your classes in high school but if you fail that test, you wil NOT get your diploma, and that's madd gay to me...

but at the same time, I should've taken school more seriously and got a scholarship for some shit so I could be somewhere else besides still here in Houston just starting off in college in January...if I had the right attitude toward school while I was in it, I'd be way better off now and be probably done with all the college I'd wanted to do and just expanding to different fields that I wanna dable in and already have a major that I wanted to focus on career-wise, but I'm only starting now...I wasted like 2 years after high school that I could've spent doing something that'd help my future...

life experience is great, that's fine, but knowing about life isn't gonna keep food on your table...a good steady job is...

I like school, I don't try at all, but I'm going to start next year when grade eleven starts.

Terumoto 04-02-05 12:14 PM

Hmmm I never really tried in school until the last year. Im one of those guys that can take in a whole lotta shit without too much effort, so I did alright the rest of the years. Then 12th grade came along, I put in some effort, and now im in a different country with a dope steady job. Away from family, which is where I wanted to be.

MadProphet 04-02-05 01:04 PM
