We start at 5 until 12 in primary so 8 years there and then 13 to 18 in secondary so 6 years there and the College. Originally posted by Mr_Trek:[..]
No, in sweden we start first class when we're 6/7 years old, then finish primary school in ninth grade (15/16 years old), then we have secondary school in three years. And then university.
Originally posted by Mr_Trek:So you start at an earlier age but then we end secondary school at the same age. So basically from there we're the same

Nah, I mean you finishing primary school at 15/16, when we finish at 11. That's how I find it quite different.

Probably just different "set-ups", I'd guess we're more well educated when we finish primary school than you are.
