Schools out forever

Elementary is anyhow. What that means is I've "graduated" from the first large step of education in the Swedish system. I recently finished the ninth and final grade in elementary school and next year I'll be starting the "gymnasium" (which I've mentioned in previous blogs) which would translate to "upper secondary school". To further explain the Swedish system, we start off with kindergarden until we're 5-6, we then proceed with a form of an introduction to school that is aimed to be went through at the age of 6, then ages 7-15 we go through first through ninth grades, where we get our base education. After that we can choose (although almost 100% of inhabitants do it) to go to the upper secondary school for 3 years, where we ourselves get to choose which subjects we want to mainly focus on learning. After that you can study 3-7 years of university, which is for in-depth learning of specific studies.

As it's all I've typed about in my previous blogs, I'm sure you've a fair idea of how my situation is if you've read them. Basically, the schools require a certain amount of points (that are based on your elementary school grades) to qualify. The more popular the school is, the higher gets that requirement. My school is a pretty large and popular school, a hands-down good school. Ergo, it has a high point requirement (though the point requirement is based on the alignment, not the school, the popularity of the school still affects the requirement indirectly). The alignment I'm applying for as first hand choice has the requirement of 275 points (preliminarily, the number has high chances of rising), and I've recently finished school with 290 points. Like I've explained before, 320 is max which can be achieved by getting top grade in all subjects. 290 is therefore very high (yes, I'm bragging, get over it). Right now what I'm hoping for is that the requirement doesn't rise to above my number, because my second-hand choice is a really terrible school which I highly regret having on my application altogether. It would be a... tragedy... if I didn't meet the requirements for my first-hand choice. All I can do is hope for the best.

For those actually interested; there are 3 main choices of aligment (there are a lot more, but these are the largest ones): Nature (which is mostly physics, chemistry, biology and a lot of maths), Civics (religion, geography, history, politics etc) and aesthetic (where you get to specifically choose whether you want to go a "drama" course, which is acting and such, or music courses and so on). Note that all of these teach all the subjects (except that the aesthetic courses are exclusive to the aesthetic alignment), the only difference is what you really learn in-depth about.
I've chosen a "Nature, profile: Maths" aligment, as I'm very interested in mathematics and physics. This specific alignment is exclusive to the school I'm applying for.


Now that I've bored you all with my life's so far biggest event, I can talk about some other things... I just have to think of some.

I'm thinking about doing a let's play (and actually finishing it this time) of OOT, what with the summer and all. The reason I'm doing OOT over MM is because I've tried doing MM ones a million times and failed, it's time I try something else for a change. Would any of you watch it? I'm probably going to go ahead and make it even if I get 2 viewers on each of the clips but it's nice to have some support. Meh, you don't even have to answer that question.

I'm a master of Tetris now. The king! I've literally nothing else to write here at this point. I'll just end it.

Bye.
