pam Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 I think the HSC is a bit different. We do GCSE's followed by A-Levels and then Uni. So school finishs at yr. 13. In Aus im not sure but i think the HSC is 3 years and school ends in yr.12. If thats correct the HSC is like an equivlent of the GCSE and A-Level combined. Quote
Jackieleanne Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 Its not so hard to sleep where I live my area is a quiet street in a really nice suburb of town surrounded by fields so its nice and quiet at night. Quote
Jess Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 Ahhh....OK....the whole thing seriously confuses me! Quote
Jess Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 Cool. When I go and stay in London I have to sleep with earplugs in. Seriously. Otherwise there's no way I can sleep at all. Quote
Dean Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 Hey guys and gals! Just wondering, are GSCE's like the HSC? HSC? How old are you when you do them? 16? If so then yeah, I think so. And then can you take more exams after that? I think they're like our 'A'-Levels. Nah. At 16 (well, I'll be 15) we do School Certificate. That is end of Year 10. At 18 we do HSC at end of Year 12. So maybe GSCE=School Cert. & A Levels=HSC? Quote
Jackieleanne Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 Yea when ive stayed in Blackpool and stuff, I can't sleep its way to noisy although when im in Blackpool nowadays I am usually out untill the early hours anyway. Quote
pam Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 And then there is also the IB. Xp I think that is right. So we have done the whole UK and Australian system equivlent. Now I understand Quote
