Good deal…

Cant wait for Kirupa to get his unibrowed self to MIT. Then Rere420, Golgi, Lavaboy and Myself can corrupt him.

Congratz… :smiley:

How old are you when you graduate from high school? I live in the UK and we leave when we are 16…

8

17 or 18 in the US

You have such a weird schooling system… :slight_smile:

I remember my graduation. :slight_smile: Actually that’s a lie, no I don’t. I was drunk as a skunk for most of it. :stuck_out_tongue:

10

… sex :stuck_out_tongue:

11

Probably, but I honestly can’t remember. :blush:

12

Yeah - we graduate at 18. 2 years of Kindergarten, 12 years of regular school, and 4 years of actual life = 18 or 17 :slight_smile: I came straight home after graduation and watched the NBA Western Conference finals. Dallas lost - so disappointing :frowning:

Cheers!
Kirupa :ub:

We do 2 years at infant school, 4 years of junior then 5 years of secondary. After that you can leave at 16 or carry on to 18 at secondary school/ college. Then you can leave at 18 or go on to University, generally for another three years. Then there’s a Masters course of a year after that if you want it, and a Doctorate… :slight_smile:

14

Not all we Kit! :stuck_out_tongue:

Junior and infant was the same thing for me

You Brtish always name things phonetically (sp?)

Try Kindergarden! It does not make sense at all…a garden fill of kinders?!

But it sounds better :skull: :skull:

17

I only had one year of kindergarten, I thought that’s how it worked in America. Although I guess it could be different from state to state.

  1. It’s kindergarTen. I’m guessing it doesn’t have much to do with a garden :).

  2. The US state doesn’t require kids to go to school until kindergarten, but many parents put their kids in 4 yr old kindergarten which gives the parents a break from the annoying little kids and lets their kids have a head start on reading and all that fun stuff.
