Night school across countries

Aota · (#1 (**permalink**))

Me, I've been going to night school every Tuesday and Thursday for the past three weeks, to get ahead in studies. I'm taking psychology, and sociology currently.

I was wondering, 'What is night school like in other countries?'

If you could answer my question, that'd be greatly appreciated.

Well, night schools here are diferent then yours. Here, going to a night school is considered when somebody older than 25 (or older) goes to it (but haven't finished highschool) just to get a diploma.

I go to "Night School" simply out of convienence. During the day I work full time the whole week, so monday/weds nights I go to class.

We also have programs for people who do not have Highschool Deplomas to get GED's at night. But that's different.

When I had classes at night I found that everyone was there to take the class and learn the subject. Day classes were like High School part II.

Yup that's how it works here too. It's meant for people who work day jobs and still wanna go ahead with their studies. You have to be over 18 though to attend night school (I think).

Really now?

That certainly is interesting... Over 18?

Anyone else want to share experiences, personal or otherwise, of night school?

It certainly has been taking its toll on me, though. Passing out in seventh period is so mundane for me now that my teacher won't even bother to wake me up.
