I get it now. We go elementary education which is elementary school and middle school/junior high. Then we have secondary education which is high school. But we don't do the GSCE or A level things. We either go on to a two year trade school where we get an associate's degree or we go to a four year college/university where we get a bachelor's degree. After that, we can go onto graduate school and get a master's degree, and if we stick with it, a doctoral degree. We can stop any time after we're 16 (in North Carolina, anyway)

My major right now (for my bachelor's degree) is Journalism and Mass Communications with a concentration in News/Editorial writing.
