Expert: Laurence Koster Date: 7/9/2007 Subject: high school in Iceland
Question Hi i'm interested in attending school in Iceland but i can't seem to find anything about foreign exchange or anything like that. I do know that students graduate in the tenth grade and then go onto another four-year school before college.
I have a good friend over there and have visited there before, and was told they have enlgish-taught classes in the school between high school and college. I wanted to see if i could attend the 11th grade there while staying with her.
Any information would be greatly appreciated!
Answer Hello Megan,
Which country are you from?
Do you know any Icelandic? I would have thought that even if some subjects are taught in English, you will still need to know Icelandic to attend school.
Anyway, I think it's an exciting and commendable idea. I'm afraid I don't know much about this.
If your friend is at school in Iceland, maybe she can ask her school for you.
