And it sounds like you guys have it twice is hard. Unless these are similar to the SATs, then you've got it easy. I mean the standardized tests aren't so bad. I just wish we were given more than 3/4 of a school year to learn the courses for 4 separate subjects. :/

What are SATs by the way? In the UK we have the 11+ exams for entry into secondary schools, the GCSEs at the end of secondary school, then AS exams and A2 exams in years 1 and 2 of college. I'm doing my AS exams.
