In the United States, high school generally consists of grades 9, 10, 11 and 12, though this may vary slightly by school district. American [[student|students]] may leave high school at age 16, which is usually grade 10 or 11 if the standard [[curriculum]] has been followed throughout life. So the last two years of high school are not compulsory, but most students complete their [[degree]]. A high school diploma or [[G.E.D.]] and a passing score on the [[SAT]] are generally required for entrance into a [[college]] or [[university]]. |

'''High school''' is the former name of [[secondary school]]s in [[Australia]]. The name was officially changed to [[secondary college]] in the early 1990s, but to the majority of the adult Australina population they are still remembered as high schools. The exact length of secondary school varies from state to state, but the majority teach Year 7-12. It is compulsory to attend school until the age of fifteen, but most students remain at school to complete their studies and go on to [[college]] or [[university]]. |
