School system of the United KingdomThe United Kingdoms school system is considered the gold standard in education and has been influential in establishing educational benchmarks around the world. Education in the UK begins at age five where students begin learning subjects such as English, Mathematics and Science. In Grade 10 and Grade 11, students prepare for their General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSEs), an academic qualification awarded in up to 10 subjects. After taking GCSEs, students can choose to enter the workforce, pursue training at a vocational college, or continue studying for two additional years for university entrance exams, called the Advanced Level General Certificate of Education, commonly referred to as A-levels.

University study Undergraduate students in the UK typically pursue a bachelors degree which specialises in one subject for three years. Entrance requirements for international students include English proficiency (with a minimum IELTS level 6.0) and an additional year of secondary school, known as a University Foundation Program, which is equivalent to Grade 13. A traditional masters degree is in either the Arts (MA), Sciences (MSc) or in Business Administration (MBA), which typically lasts one year and require both exams and a thesis to graduate. Some specialized careers require the completion of a doctoral program or PhD, which may include four to five years of advanced study and research, plus a formal dissertation. For most of these programs, international students are required to have a recognized undergraduate degree and an English level of at least IELTS level 6.5. MBA programs normally require at least two years of work experience.

At grade 11-12, they start Gymanasium, which is designed to prepare pupils for university and finishes with the final examination Abitur, a qualification awarded in up to 10 subjects after grade 12, mostly year 13 and required to be admitted to German universities.

University study Undergraduate students in Germany typically pursue a bachelors degree which specializes in one subject for three years. Entrance requirements for international students include a German proficiency test (TestDaF) and if the students high school diploma is not considered equivalent to the Abitur an additional year of secondary school in Germany, known as Studienkolleg, which is the equivalent to grade 13 at Gymnasium.
