I know some norwegians who studied in america. The worst part for them was that every day is the same. Same classes, same lenghts of the day, no at school at all. The grading was not the issue, we get graded too on those things, europe is an entire continent, school works dif for dif countries. One of the guys i know who studied there had to spend his entire summer vecation studying in order to actually pass his grade back in norway cus he essentually learned nothing, and would have not understood anything of what was happening when he got back to norway.. he was in collage. School systems here also work dif, in norway you have child school grade 1-7 , teen school from grade 8-10, futher (?) school from grade 11-12 or 13 years in school and then usually 2 years of work training, then, if you are going to do any futher education, you do high school or higher school, aka, college. You have free education form grades 1-10. You choose what you want to become at in 10th grade, the year you turn 16. school lunch breaks here are also between 20 to 30 min. We learn 2-3 languages from grades 1-7 and then take those and add a 4rth language from grade 8-10 ( the languages being norwegian, english, new norwegian ( the old norwegain, it is infact a seperate language ) and then you pick between deeper english, spanish, german or france ). A huge dif tho is how a school week looks, we have 2 mid long days ( monday and friday ), 2 long days ( tirsday and thusaday ) and a short day ( wednesday ). We have dif classes everyday, some days have math, some have sciance, some have norwegian, some have art, some have gym, etc. From what the ppl i know who went to study in america, it is difficult cus you learn nothing and the educational system is insanly boring and repetetive, only training you to take tests, not actually learning anything. Its not harder, its just a worse education system that makes it harder to learn anything.
