i can have a corn on 1 condition

Not BRITISH, English. I never realised I was patriotic but that is one thing which really annoys me and I do apologise but I just can't help it.

Us Scots sit Standard Grades, but they are basically the same thing.

Haha don't worry, I'm the same way with using the word British... as far as I am concerned Scottish, English and Welsh are three seperate nationalities and should not be thrown in together because we share the same piece of land :grin01: If you say you're British... well, it still isn't clear what nationality you are!

*cough* But anyway... back on track... :-offtopic

Frustrating though it is, I think it's good that your parents have set this goal for you. Besides, gives you plenty of time to research corns. ;)
 
Hahaha, sorry for my mistake. I did type english at first, but then thought about it and changed it to British as I thought all 4 countries did the same. My bad. Sorry.
I'm the same when it comes to being a patriot, why would I want to be associated with Scottish, Welsh and Irish?? Hehe only joking.:rolleyes:

Christina, they're the General Certificates of Secondary Education. British children take them at age 16.

Thanks :) Are they provided for every course you take to show how you did in that course, or is it similiar to our diploma? ( if students here pass all their courses, and get the appropriate amount of credits, they recieve a diploma.. Then they can go onto higher education such as University or College )
Sorry for kinda hijacking this thread, I'm just curious. I have no clue how other schooling systems work. :shrugs:
 
They are provided for each course, you have to sit an exam for each course you have taken...so, its not like a diploma. You get a certificate at the end with the grades you achieved for each subject in a list.
 
Only people who know very little about a subject say they know everything. A true expert knows that no matter how much you know you will never learn everything about what you are studying.
