the us system sounds easier coz we have to do as levels followed by a levels, before we can get into a decent university (college - us) as well as also having done GCSEs which is 3 years in a row of exams , but over there its just one bunch of exams right! thats so unfair :P just finished my a levels probs got afew e's wont get into uni & will hav to work at maccy d's :( :D lol

I didn't have to take any entry test to get into College. Strange.

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.

how is the GPA worked out?

i dont think we have an equivalent to that

GPA = Grade Point Average

A=4
B=3
C=2
D=1
F=0

Let's say you earn 2 A's, 3 B's, and 1 C; that's 2(4)+3(3)+2 = 19
19/6(classes) = 3.17

I almost had to take the SAT's.  It was all scheduled and everything.  I was being scouted by some colleges in the States, but then I fucked up my shoulder and ruined my baseball career  :'(

yeah i dunnoa bout other places.. but all the university ofcalifornias require SATs and SAT 2's...Cal state's dont require the SAT 2's , but require the first one.. i got fuckin lazy in high school and didnt feel like writing a application essay or take the SAT 2's even though i did fucking good on the sat 1's...  but yeah i regretted that.. but i made it up to myself by going to CSU for one year, and then went back home for community college for one year, and now i transferred to UCSB....
but shit.. i dont know about other places either, but at the UC's the gpa is calculated fucking wack.. instead of just set A=4, B=3, C=2..etc.. they have different GPA levels for A, A-, B+, B, B-, shit like that... so a B- is actually less than a 3.0.. and a B+ is actually more than a 3.0 , and A- is actually less than a 4.0, and so on... i got fucked over cos of this grading system.. now i gotta choose a whole different major, and rework my whole plan.. im fucked.

LOL, yup, that's why at the UC schools it's worth talking to your teacher about your grade. Sometimes if you're able to convince them, and they will take off that -, or add the +.  :)

Damn... people here did great on the SAT. I had one of the tope scores in my school... a 1040... lol. For reals, that was considered great at my school. I didn't study, I didn't bring a calculator. My dad woke me up, and said "You have to take the SAT" and I was like, for reals, I forgot. So I drove there half asleep and took the test. Both times the same way. Got into college and graduated, so who gives a fuck. After Affirmative Action got dumped in California, I still got accepted into my schools, and I only had a 2.8 overall GPA, and a 3.3 GPA my junior and senior year. I have no clue how I got into college, I put white on applications (for reals, I was into this whole I'm white 'cause Latinos won a court case deal), there is not logic how I got accepted to my colleges. Oh well. I ended up going to Minnesota, which made it known I was accepted to increase the multicultural population, and I still graduated and left much for that school.

English = 390, which was considered just garbage
Math = 650, which was the highest in my school

SAT II

I was suppose to take writing, but fucked up and took lit = 400
History = 560
Math - 640
