Big day in Polish school

Hi in Czech and Sweden!
Our Zespół Szkół Nr 11 consists of two schools: the primary school and the gimnazjum. (Lower secondary school in Poland is called gymnasium.) Today it was our biggest day. Since 2002 at the end of the 3rd year of the gymnasium (when we are 16), we have to take an external examination. This examination checks both abilities, skills and knowledge in the field of humanities and science. It is compulsory for all students. Our results will be indicated on the gymnasium leaving certificate.

The exam was difficult but I think that results will be good. I keep my fingers crossed for everyone ;)M. J.

I is nice to visit your site and learn how you live.
In Hungary students at "gymnasium" have to take the school leaving exams at the age of eighteen. In some secondary schools there are exams for sixteen-year-olds. These exams are not compulsary, but they provide a kind of experience for students. The exams are in May, so very soon.
