Q: What is the equivalency of a high school diploma to England's schooling?
By having a high school diploma, what does that equal out to in England's school system? Holy s**t! Thanks. Is that good or bad in regards to working over there? I mean with the high school diploma that is?

A: In theory it is GCSE levels and A-Levels in theory are suppose to equivalent to AP course in that subject or two years of university. From what I have seen personally seen of the English schools system which includes the lack of knowledge English students have when it comes to math and grammar my personal opinion is a High School Diploma is equivalent an A-Levels in English, Math, Literature, Science, and Social Science. Furthermore it is my personal belief AP courses with an AP test score of a 4 or 5 is equivalent to its university equivalent in England.

I passed my algebra 1 class. Do I have to take gemometry or algebra 2 to get my high school diploma? The reason I ask is because I got to choose between those two and Math for the World of Work. But my friend at a different independent studies school had to either do geometry or algebra 2. Thanks.

A: It depends largely on what your school requires for graduation, as well as what the state requires. A guidance counselor would be able to help you with that. Also, if you're considering going to college, I would look at what some of the colleges you're interested in require. Sometimes your high school may only require you go to a certain level, but a college might prefer you to be at a higher level.
