We don't have to do the whole acceptance thing xD
I need to go find tights for my costume - the ones I had are severely laddered
And I need to go find some earings so it's late night shopping tomorrow after physics : DDD

Most schooling systems confuse me, but hey!

Yup, normally black or dark purple

...British schooling confuses me...I'm so glad I don't have to get involved in it><

What type of school do you go to?

An American-International school, but it works like a normal American one. Meaning we have: end of semester exams twice a year, PSATs (when you're 15-17) or SATs (once 16-18, I think), Terra-Novas (stupid tests that you can't study for that just compare you to other schools) and random english tests that take about 10 minutes that we get once a year. And we have the same classes everyday, which sucks ><

Aceptance explination, for any one who wants to know,

There are 2 years in college, AS and A2. To get into A2 you have to take a sheet thingy to each of your subject teachers, there are three choices on the sheet: Yes (You can continue the subject no matter what), No (Like hell are you ever coming the this class again, and conditional (Usually its something like, you must get a D in the AS exams). The teacher circles one of these and signs it.

[Kirara_Yumi]

Mint- yeah, I know what you mean! it's weird!

Fluffier- Wow...our teachers don't have much of a choice in what we do. The only thing I can think of that's a tiny bit similar is getting teacher's reccomendation to get into higher-level classes. Thanks for explaining^^

Oh, okay, that's what an acceptance thing is...
xD

I go to a sixth form at a private girls' school so the teachers basically tell you to your face whether its worth continuing for A2 level.
All my teachers want me to stay.
I don't know what to drop! D:
