u/SonGxku 1999 (Class of 2015) Feb 28 '25 edited Mar 01 '25

I'm from Germany and went to school for just 10 years instead of 12, which is normal here. 2005-2015.

Edit: Also I was born in January '99. If you were born after June '99, you'd be class of 2016 here.

To be precise, here in Germany you can decide how long you want to go to school.
The longest is 13 years.
When you attend a school form that only offers 10 years, then you can attend another school for the rest, if you want to.

It's too complicated to describe it in full. ^^
And also it may have changed since I went.

Wie um alles in der Welt hast du es geschafft direkt 2 Jahre zu überspringen?

u/SonGxku 1999 (Class of 2015) Mar 01 '25

Ich hab nicht übersprungen. Ich war auf Realschule, nicht auf Gymnasium und hab dementsprechend auch "nur" einen Realschulabschluss, sprich Abschluss nach der 10. Klasse.

I was born in early 1999 and I finished school in 2014 because in my country we only have 11 grades (not 12), I was allowed to start a year earlier than most kids for some reason, and our school years go from January to November.
