Well hello Isa....Avalon

Let me explain a bit.

The American school system is based off of three different types of education.

Primary education, this your grade school/ elementary school and is usually classified from ages 5 starting in Kidnergaten till 5th grade or around age 11.

Secondary Education, is the middle school high school level. This starts at age 11-12 and goes until around age 18-19. Middle school/junior high is grade level 6,7,8 high school starts at 9 and continues to 12. High schoolers refer to themselves as Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors respectively.

Tertiary Education, is a college or university(Americans typically use this term interchangeably) level education. Students really get to choose how long they want to attend university and this will usually determine the degree of education they are getting. 1-year is usually classified as a certificate. 2 years is an Associates degree. 4 years is a bachelors degree and is the most common (I am getting a bachelors in International Business) 5+years is what is considered graduate school. Students can earn a Masters or Doctorate (PHD) at this level, and time is dependent on the area of study!

I hope that helps

O.O Why you... xD

Ahh, okay c: For us, Primary ends at year 6, which is when we're 11.
We have Secondary school which is also from ages 11-16. Then college is after that.
We have nursery which is when you're 2 or something? Then there's pre-school from ages 3-4.
idk, it's quite confusing but I get it more now xD

 

[Hartech]

Yeah we have nursery or daycare for toddlers, and then pre-kidnergaten (or Pre-K) as well.

Glad I could help! Speaking with some students from the UK they refer to college as a sort of pre university education. Which I thought was pretty strange myself XD

Fashionably late to the party...



Uh... Hi, my name is Emma (Wait, I think some people know that already...) and I'm 17 years old, blonde, blue eyes, 5ft 6.5in tall and invisible if you look at me from the side. I'm currently in my final year of college, studying Psychology, Media Studies and Business Studies and I have no intention to go to Uni, at all.

I run the Tumblr page for my Boyfriend's YouTube channel (Well, a lot of us take part but my boyfriend is the boss), currently there are very little posts there as both of us are really busy with coursework so YouTube isn't a priority right now. Apart from that I am unemployed (If you live in Colchester, Essex and you own a business which needs fresh blood, PLEASE HIRE ME!) and clearly desperate for a job.

I like:
-RWBY
-Doctor Who
-Pokemon
-The Elder Scrolls
-A Song of Ice and Fire
-Muse
-Deadmau5
-Marvel comics (Please don't start going all "you're a girl you can't read/enjoy comics" on me, its too cute)
-Supernatural
-Star Wars
-Star TRek
-Tumblr
-Driving
-Baking
-My Boyfriend (More love than like)
-My friends
-Money
-etc.

I dislike:
-My Little Pony
-CoD
-FPS in general
-'Tough' guys
-'Funny' people
-Makeup
-Sprouts
-Savoury pies
-Bullies
-Nice Guys?
-PEOPLE WHO SPOIL BOOKS/FILMS/TV SHOWS/GAMES ON THE DAY THEY ARE RELEASED!

I am willing to answer questions, as long as they are non-intrusive and worded properly.

 

[cIementine]

Hi Emma. You are one of few people I know that like Muse. You rock.

I love Marvel also. I think my school bag has explained that for a lot of people.

Please name your favourite Marvel hero and favourite Marvel Villian.

My favourite hero is Iron man and my favourite villian is LOKI FTW <3333

Ooh, favourite hero... Spiderman and favourite villain is Loki (Both Hiddleston Loki and Kid Loki, since he's really funny in the current series of the Young Avengers!)
As mentioned above I'm currently reading the Young Avengers series (On my Kindle as I can't find hard copies anywhere!) and my favourite comic book series that I own is Avengers Versus X-Men! (All issues in one book, since I missed it when it was being printed individually)

Going to see Thor: The Dark World tomorrow with one of my friends, I had to unfollow so many people on Tumblr since people don't know how to put stuff under a read more and the ending has been totally spoiled for me! (How some people have already gif'd the ending is beyond me!)

I'm gonna stick this thread for you. Think that might be a record for unofficial threads.

As for me, I'm Prof. Gallows, I like games, reading, writing, and some other stuff. You're better off talking to me to figure this stuff out.

I love road trips. There's something about taking a long drive in a car. It's the perfect place to think and have endless thoughts about the details of your life. It's so relaxing too, especially when you're listening to a good radio station.

SHOTGUN. I love that seat.
+ 1,000,000 for anyone who can drive.
