Because we are attending the science program, there is a lot of school work to be done. The science program consists of a lot of biology, chemistry, maths and physics.
It is the most demanding program in upper secondary school. The department of eduacation under the goverment has some goals that all program need to follow, we have unique goals that we need to follow. In the spring we have a lot to do because of all the national exams and tests over all, for the teacher needs a basis for us, so they know what grade they should give you. It is hard to get high grades in secondary school comperaing with elementary school.
Swedish upper secondary is very serious, much like a university with all the rules. If you cheat on a test for exemple you can get reported to the police (yes seriously) Other rules include; not putting your feet on funiture, don´t smoke on school area.
We get more than 100 euros a month for going to school. We get this contribution from CSN, the central panel study ,an orginisation of the goverment. We also get free food and we do not have to wear school uniforms, Estudiamos español dos veces a la semana.

SvaraRaderaOur schools are very different! We are not payed for going to school but if you cheat you are not reported to the police. Also this month we have lot of homework, exams and works. May is the most stressful month of the year.

Our schools have some differences like we don't get paid or we can't get reported to the police if we cheat on a exam, but we also have similarities like the prohibition of smoking in school area or putting our feet on the furniture, but this last thing I think is a little bit of common sense
