[edit] Sophomore Redirect
[[ Currently Sophomore redirects to this page.
I feel that's incorrect since it doesn't refer to 10th grade itself, but rather, to "the second year" whether that be 10th grade (2nd year of high school) or 2nd year University. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.13.28.119 (talk) 05:30, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- Agreed. "Sophomore" refers to the second year of schooling both in high school and in college; it should not redirect here. Chubbles 16:11, 24 September 2007 (UTC)]]
[edit] English & Scottish 'Equivalents'
I removed these sections after some thought. There appears to be a problem (at least how I see it) in including these sections in a page headed '10th Grade' as it is a term not used in either systems. Furthermore, the entries talked about the equivalent years, which are in fact the 11th year of education in both, further divorcing them from the heading. So really all they have in common is the age of the students/pupils. I don't know if they belong on this page, as it is not a page dedicated to comparing educational systems. Or is it? I note that Eleventh grade continues on the same theme. It all appears to be attempting to unify comparisons under a term that only really belongs to the U.S., so if we are to use the page as a way of comparing educational systems the page would need a more generic title ('Education of 15-16 year olds', or something). (I can't speak for how valid this page is for Canada & Australia. I just reorganised what was already there for them.) --Escape Orbit (Talk) 16:55, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
