6 years of primary school (elementary school) --> 3 years of middle school (junior high school) --> 3 years of high school (senior high school) --> 4 years of university or 2 years of junior college. Up to the high school level, the systems in other East Asian countries and (surprisingly) Poland are very similar, including high school entrance exams and whatnot.
Haha, no problem
I guess it all depends on where we're coming from. My educational background happens to be an assortment of independent schools in the UK, Hong Kong (based on the old O-level/A-level system) and the US... so I am naturally more familiar with the idea of sixth form as part of secondary school
