No wonder European countries don’t accept US high school diplomas as sufficient for acceptance into a college or university.
Yes, they do. I have been to two.
At least in my country, the highschools are not exactly good. Many students get ~30% attendance. On top of that, there aren’t enough highschool slots for students, so poorer performing students can’t go to highschool or have to pay for private school.
There may be some countries. But I know the Scandinavian countries will not accept US diplomas without the student passing extra testing that others don’t have to go through.
It’s possible that’s for a full program. You may be able to take individual classes or certs with a US diploma.
I’ve never encountered any country that didn’t accept US diplomas, or rather treated them any different than any other non-EU diploma.
One example is Denmark where a US highschool diploma is only considered under quota 2, which means you have to have other merits than just the highschool diploma. It could be additional testing and relevant work experience.
Diplomas from most other countries are considered under quota 1, which looks at the diploma only.
There are many other countries with similar rules.
En amerikansk high school-eksamen vurderes kun i kvote 2.
Nogle IB-skoler, som også er amerikansk akkrediterede, det vil sige anerkendte som amerikanske skoler, tilbyder et amerikansk High School Diploma som alternativ til en ikke fuldt gennemført IB-eksamen. Vær da særligt opmærksom på, om eksamensforløbet opfylder de krav til en amerikansk high school eksamen, som er beskrevet i Eksamenshåndbogen.
Krav om 3 AP-eksaminer
Der kræves 3 AP-eksaminer aflagt ved College Board og bestået med mindst karakteren 3, for at den amerikanske high school-eksamen kan give adgang til universitetsuddannelser. For at opfylde kravet om AP-eksaminer kræves desuden, at AP-eksaminer er aflagt inden for minimum 3 forskellige fagområder. Eksempelvis vil AP-eksamen i fagene US Government, Physics og Calculus AB være inden for 3 forskellige fagområder, mens AP-eksamen i fagene Physics, Calculus AB og Calculus BC kun dækker over 2 forskellige fagområder.
Et High School Graduation Diploma uden disse 3 studieforberedende og beståede Advanced Placement Tests giver adgang til erhvervskademi- og professionsbacheloruddannelser samt kunstneriske bacheloruddannelser. En sådan eksamen kan ved supplering blive adgangsgivende til universitetsuddannelser. Denne supplering bør ske i samråd med det uddannelsessted, hvor man ønsker optagelse, så man samtidig kan få at vide, om man opfylder eventuelle specifikke adgangskrav.
Det er som altid uddannelsesstedet, der afgør, om den enkelte kan optages.
Okay, so roughly the same as what I posted. Yeah I suppose it is quota 2, but as I said, it doesn’t seem much different than many other countries. It’s certainly not saying the US highschool diploma is exceptionally bad. Especially given how common AP classes are.
Well, it says what I initially said. That a regular US highschool diploma is not acceptable as a standalone document to get you accepted. You have to do extra and even AP classes won’t get you out of having to go through quota 2. And that’s really a reflection of a US highschool being an inferior education in their eyes.
Almost always a ticket, assuming that’s the only law you’re breaking. And they will certainly look for more!
Funny story, I was arrested in Chicagoland one time for not having a license. (Lost my wallet, still had to work.) Officer had a high school kid (cop wannabe) for a ride-along and wanted to demonstrate arrest and booking procedures.
In and out in 45 minutes but got stuck 30 miles from home.
Not enough garble flabben peanut butter delasan yogurt bacouratit for it to have been written mid stroke… source: I have witnessed 3 loved ones die from strokes.
Yeah people this dumb either think it’s a good thing and revel in it or are incapable of forming the thought/reaching the level of self-awareness that allows them to think “maybe I’m stupid.”
I don’t care about a retort. I’d just like to see corrections in red, with a “D- PROOF READ!!!” written at the top, and maybe a “Provide sources” at the bottom.
For those who are wondering if this picture is real or not, I couldn’t say. But I have seen a fair share of misspellings and bad grammar written on trucks about similar sentiments in Nevada (seeing where the license in the picture belongs to). The take away of this is that usually there is a correlation between education and conspiracies (believing in misinformation), and it’s a very real, serious issue in this country.
Somebody should let the GOP know so they stop trying to defund education! Surely they wouldn’t want entire generations of people growing up to be ignorant, conspiracy believing assholes with no critical thinking skills!
More specifically, we don’t really teach source analysis in a lot of schools anymore. I’ve run into college students who have no idea of how to discern that a source is bullshit - especially if the site or source looks well-polished and sounds like it knows what it’s talking about. Even a lot of Q people have figured out that the best way to draw people in is to look and sound professional, not just ranting into a camera in your truck cabin - you need a nice backdrop, and probably a polo shirt at minimum.
When Republicans were initially investingating the 2020 election in Georgia, they called in a “forensic imaging specialist” who said that they would be able to determine which ballots were fabricated. I got a lot of flack for questioning the guy’s credentials online, but literally his biggest accomplishment in life was inventing a crappy barcode scanner shaped like a cat, and it was a huge flop.
r/conservative was adamant that this dunce was going to overturn the election in Georgia…
Covid 19 vaccines and mandates, are killing us in the land of the free. Our rights are being taken away from us.
I’m not sure about the vaccines as we’re entering Alex Jones territory there that’s not really my place to comment on
but i can say the potential hillbilly has a point in my opinion the covid 19 mandates were poorly miss-managed almost everywhere across the globe. Lots of mom and pop shops had to close doors even some bigger businesses which created alot of job loses and lots of people were affected financially people whom struggled to put food on the table buy petrol pay for the leccy and keep a roof on there head. All this over poorly managed goverments and bureaucrats across the world and on top of this you got governments telling you what todo and if you didn’t follow through with the governments demands you could land your self a heafty fine and some prison time. I can see why people may be starting to get pissed off
See? Now it makes sense! Or not…
Seriously, your translation was very helpful. I understood most, of that message, but the vacations made no sense and were a bit too far off from what was meant to be said.
I agree in principal but a lot of the people who talk about COVID restrictions and their rights are incensed at the idea of, for example, wearing a cloth mask. But things like the TSA, extrajudicial police killings, and the legislatures and courts trying to overturn voter-approved abortion protections are all a-okay with a lot of them.
