how old are you in eighth grade in america
Eighth grade Eighth grade is the term used for the year of education in the US. In England, the equivalent is Year 9 and in Scotland the equivalent is S2. Usually, students will be 13-14 years old. Students are usually in their ninth year (Kindergarten included) of education at the time they enter eighth grade. It is typically the last year for Middle school.
General Certificate of Secondary Education At the end of the two-year GCSE course, towards the end of August of that year, candidates receive a grade for each subject that they have sat. Before the transformation of the GCSE grading system from alphabetical to numeric grades, the pass grades, from highest to lowest, were: A* (pronounced "A-star"), A, B, C, D, E, F, and G. Grade U (ungraded/unclassified) signifies that a pupil achieved nothing worthy of credit; therefore, no GCSE is awarded to the pupil in that subject. For GCSEs after reformations, the pass grades are 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1, but a "good pass" which is generally required, is grade 4 or higher. The U grade stays the same as mentioned above.
