High School for an Exchange Student
As an exchange student you will spend most of the time in school. It is very important for you to create as much positive influences in school as possible. On your first day of school you will meet the schools student-counselor. It is then you will choose what subjects you going to attend for the year.
There are usually some obligated classes to take if you want to graduate. In USA it is English, American History and American Government. Except the obligated classes you can chose whatever you want to. This is really the perfect time to choose classes you don’t have in your country. Exchangestudentworld.com recommends people to take “speech” if you come to USA. It is a great class where you learn how to talk in front of people without being scared.
