High School Differences

There is a big difference between high school and college from having bells to a no dress policy. For high school students, they are obligated to go, and if they don’t attend then the government comes into play. As for college, it 's a choice to go back to school. Students in college have variety of classes to choose from and freedom,etc. This could be freedom from parents or just doing whatever you want without parents barking at you, because you are now an adult. Even though I have been in college for only a semester, I would say that I enjoy college more than high school due to personal reason,and to pros and cons, of the different schools.

Some may think that high school and college reading and writing are similar and that it’s just the next level up but it 's not, they differentiate in many ways. College reading and writing is more than that, it’s a completely different world when compared to high school. It’s much more advanced and complexed. Some ideas that can be compared are the way we annotate, understand text, assignment topics, the depth of research, and so on. This is important to understanding how much more you can get out of college vs. just getting a high school reading and writing education.

Many people endure three years of middle school and four years of high school. It is an eventful time for children between 11 to 18 years old. During the adolescent years there are hormonal changes, environmental changes and emotional developmental gains. Middle school is the beginning of transitioning towards independence under the constant eye of adults. During high school they are challenged with real-world challenges that help them transition into adulthood. The behaviors of these individuals change as the factors change around them. For every person, the experience of high school or middle school may be different. Either way, both have the same goal of wanting the student to succeed and evolve. Even so, the similarities and differences vary. Middle school and high school are alike in the areas of receiving an education, socializing with others, and having teachers while different in areas of maturity, difficulty in work, and independence.

In the American schooling system, children begin primary school around the age of six, this is called elementary school and most students stay there for five to six years before they go on to secondary school which involves middle school and high school. After graduating high school some students may go on to “higher education” known as college, but any schooling done after high school is no longer mandatory.

All around the world the expectation out of high school is you need to go straight into college/university and you need to know what your major is after your first year. Most high schools will focus on a local college or university that is close and has the best interest in the students, but sometimes they focus on the school that they get benefits from so when a school focuses on a local college it may not be the place for you because regardless and in most cases your high school schedule and the classes you take are based on that local college or university so if you like high school and think it gets you ready for that school more power to you but overall high schools definitely push students into local colleges.

Graduating from high school is what every student is looking forward to. However, going to college is a big accomplishment for all students. The first day of freshman high school and college feels the same, the excitement and pressured. As many students experienced, both high school and college could be compared their similarities. First, both students in college and high school are expected to behave in well mannered, attend to every class on time, and respect the teachers or professors. Second, being prepared in class is needed for the success whether the students are in high school or college. Third, high school and college allow the students to figure out and pursue their career. In contrary, high school and college have a lot of differences to each other. Unlike high school, students in college can choose a college they would prefer, they can manage their own time, and students be able to learn how to balance their responsibilities and priorities.

During my middle school I experienced a lot of peer pressure from my friends. Although they were my friends I do recognize that at times they were a bad influence for me. During middle school I also experienced constant conflict with my peers as well as a lot mockery and isolation from them. Although this was my experience from middle school, my high school experience was different.

In the first few weeks of high school, I have put a lot of effort in my classes and my homework. I definitely achieved the skill of becoming more independent and relying on myself.  I've fumbled in becoming more confident when I give a presentation to the class. I intend to become more confident next year because I get more used to the classes and environment around me. It is different than middle school. Moreover, I want to learn how to give a presentation without being too nervous or weary of the negative things that can

This school year is a lot more different than it was last year. People are a lot less immature, and teachers won't hold your hand all the way through the year. Teachers won't continue to yell at at students for not doing homework, or essays, because they're making their own path. There are many differences between the two.

When an individual thinks about education, they would probably have some upper echelon colleges like Harvard or Princeton already in their mind. Now expand your thinking of education systems to a worldwide view. Most people would spring for The United Kingdom or Germany, but actually the smaller country of Finland outperforms all others. Their educational approach to the minds of the students is uncanny when compared side by side of our own. As well as allowing multiple breaks throughout the school day whether rain or shine.Another essential part about Finland’s teacher requirements blows ours out of the water; A masters in teaching is needed to even start bestowing knowledge upon the young minds of children that stand before them that day.

In Germany schools is a little different from the schools in the United States. From the age of 6 through 14, school is mandatory, and in public state-run schools, it is free. The school system in Germany is a little different from in America’s school system. All children enter in the same program, but at the age of 10, they can go to one of four different types of schools. The way that they enter school determines whether they will go to a university or enter a technical field or trade field. Colleges in Germany are very difficult to get into. They require you to have a high school diploma and, a GPA that is equivalent to 60% of your grade. These requirements just stated will allow you to get into the lowest level of college that they have to offer. There school system goes on programs that help you get a degree in a specific field. Once you enter a program at the school, you must finish it. It is not like our school systems in the United States where you can change whenever you want. If a student in Germany starts a program and, after 3 years, he or she decides that they want to get out of that program, he or she must start over from the beginning. Nothing will transfer from program to program in the German education system. Job requirements are much more difficult, for

By the sixth grade students in Germany are being moved to schools geared toward the child 's interest whilst the American student are just now choosing classes that interest them which could be anything from shop to a foreign language. And while schools in America are offering up Spanish as a language german students are already introduced to latin and greek. In the
