I was educated in the UK. I hated high school, but enjoyed university (as it's called over there).
That's interesting, I'm from the US so I don't know how the levels relate.  Is University the same as college here, or is it like secondary school?
University's what we call school over here. Secondary school is the equivalent of high school. And we have primary school instead of elementary school.
Interesting.  Do you have Middle School as a separate thing, or is it folded into either primary or secondary?
Grades 1 thru' 7 are primary school and grades 8 thru' 13 are secondary school. After that, you go to university (school). Confused yet? :)
It's not so bad, but I don't understand why we can't just have it all the same :P  Is the grading system similar to America?  Ours is generally broken down by 10% increments, where somewhere between 60-70% is the break point between pass and fail.
50% is the pass rate over there, but the system has changed since I was there. Used to be you were awarded an A, B or C to pass an exam, A being the highest grade. Anything below a C was a fail.

On the last album, 'Frames', Gambler's playing keyboards on virtually everything, so I think he's trying to keep that to a minimum this time. There's some stuff that's the fastest,
