The American Education System

International students who come to the Untied States may wonder about their American classmates’prior education. Due to its local variations, the American education system appears confusing. In addition, the structure and procedures at American universities differ somewhat from other systems, such as the British model. This is a brief overview of the American school and university systems.

To begin, because the country has a federal system of government that has historically valued local governance, no country-level education system or curriculum exists in the United States. The federal government does not operate public schools. Each of the fifty states has its own Department of Education that sets guidelines for the schools of that state. Public schools also receive some funding from the state, although much of the funding comes from local property taxes. Public colleges and universities receive funding from the state in which they are located. Each state’s legislative body decides how many tax dollars will be given to public colleges and universities.

Students in grades 1—12 do not pay tuition. College and university students do pay tuition, but many earn scholarships or receive loans.

Much of the control of American public schools lies in the hands of each local school district. Each school district is governed by a school board, a small committee of people elected by the local community or appointed by the local government. The school board sets general policies for the school district and insures that state guidelines are met.

Generally, school districts are divided into elementary schools, middle schools, and high schools. Elementary schools are composed of students in kindergarten and grades 1—6. Many children attend kindergarten when they are five-year-old. Children begin 1st grade at age six. Middle school is composed of students in grades 6—8 and high school contains grades 9—12.

High school students are required to take a wide variety of courses in English, mathematics, science, and social science. They may also be required to take foreign language or physical education, and they may elect to take music or art courses. Many high schools also offer vocational training courses. A course can be one semester or two semesters in length. The academic year generally begins in late August and ends in early June.

In the United States, education is compulsory for all students until age sixteen. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 85% of students graduate from high school. Most high school students graduate at the age of seventeen or eighteen. A student graduates after he or she has successfully passed all of the required courses. Grades are given to students for each course at the end of each semester. The grading scale is A (excellent), B (above average), C (average), D (below average), and F (failing). A student who fails a required course must take the course again.

In 1970, about half of all American students who graduated from high school went to community college or university. Today, nearly three out of four American high school graduates go to college or university. Students have the option of attending a two-year community college (also known as a junior college) before applying to a four-year university. Admission to community college is easier, tuition is lower, and class sizes are often smaller than in a university. Community college students can earn an Associate’s degree and transfer course credits to a university. Admission to a university

Although admission policies vary from one university to the next, most determine admission based on several criteria, including a student’s high school course of study, high school Grade Point Average (GPA), SAT or ACT exam scores, written essay, and possibly a personal interview.

The university admissions office considers whether a student has taken courses in high school that have prepared him/ her for more difficult coursework. A student’s high school GPA is also considered. A GPA is a quantitative figure representing a student’s accumulated grades. Each letter grade is assigned a number of points: A=4 points, B=3, C=2, D=1 and F=0 points. A GPA is calculated by adding all of the points earned for each course grade and dividing the total points by the total number of courses taken. For example, a GPA of 3.0 is a “B” average for all of the courses taken.

Most students in the United States take the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) or the ACT (formerly known as American College Testing) during their final year of high school. Each university sets a minimum SAT or ACT score that a student must achieve in order to gain admission. These are standardized quantitative examinations. The SAT tests critical reading, mathematics, and writing skills. The ACT tests English, mathematics, reading, and science knowledge and skills.

Universities often require students to write an essay as part of the application process. The length and content of the essay is determined by each admissions office. The applicant also may be required to have a personal interview with a representative from the admissions office.

At the university

University students pursuing a Bachelor’s degree are called “undergraduates”, whereas students pursuing a Master’s or Doctoral degree are called “graduate students”. American undergraduate students will say they are “going to school” or “going to college”, which means they are attending university. A common question one student asks another is, “What is your major?”This means, “What is your major field of study?”

Most universities give undergraduate students a liberal education, which means students are required to take courses across several disciplines before they specialize in a major field of study. Graduate and professional (such as medicine or law) programs are specialized.

At the university level, most courses are only one semester long. Each course is assigned a number of credit hours. Credit hours are usually based on how much time is spent in class. Most courses are 3 credits. However, some courses may be 1, 2, 4 or credits. All degree programs require students to complete a minimum number of credit hours before graduation. Most Bachelor’s degree programs in the United States do not require students to write a final thesis.

Selection for admission to a graduate program is based on several criteria. These include completion of a Bachelor’s degree, the student’s undergraduate coursework, and their GPA. Students are also expected to write an essay as part of their application or submit a writing sample. Most Master’s programs require students to have a minimum score on the Graduate Record Examination (GRE), which tests verbal, quantitative, and analytical writing skills.

Students continue to take courses at the graduate level. A final thesis is required for most Master’s programs. Doctoral students take courses until they have earned enough credit hours to attempt their qualifying examinations, which are usually taken over several days and often include both a written and oral component. After doctoral students pass their qualifying exams, they are advanced to candidacy and can begin writing their dissertation. Before the degree is given, the completed dissertation must be orally defended before the candidate’s faculty committee.

Because degree requirements can be very complex and vary from one university and department to another, all students should check with their university and department advisors to make sure they are meeting their educational requirements.

Passage One

Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.

I am an impatient man, so you may understand how I might respond to a roadblock. It happened in a mountain road to California. A young man stopped me at a barricade to tell me there would be a half-hour delay. In the next five minutes, I nervously put my hands on the file cases, records and so on. Cars were lining up behind me, and drivers began getting out of them. So did I. “It’s a beautiful morning”, an elderly man joined me at the roadside. I looked around strings of mist through the mountain tracing silver lines against the sky. There was a clean snap of autumn in the air.

Later small groups of motorists had gathered along the roadside up the line. Someone took pictures. The delay became an event. It was that way during the last flood in my neighborhood, when the road was cut and power gone. People came out of their houses to talk. Others shared wine by lantern light and cooked over fireplaces.

What does it take to get us talking? What does it take to bring us together, grabbing at the small alliances that form when the wind howls or when the traffic stops? We have so little time for one other.

I heard a voice coming over the barricade attendant’s walkie-talkie “OK” he said “the road’s clear”. I glanced at my watch, fifty-five minutes has passed. I couldn’t believe I had remained still that long without going mad.

51. How did the author respond to the roadblock?

A) He was glad for he had a chance to chat with others.

B) He was worried about his work.

C) He felt impatient because he had to wait for half an hour.

D) He felt nervous since he had never met it before.

A) The author was delayed in a mountain road to California.

B) The drivers were lining up behind me.

C) The view of autumn is quite enjoyable.

D) The author had compared this event to what happened in his neighborhood when the electricity was stopped.

53. How long did it take to clear the roadblock?

A) Five minutes.

B) Half an hour.

C) Fifty-five minutes.

D) An hour.

54. The author implies in the passage that .

A) people need time to communicate with each other.

B) sometimes the bad thing can turn into a good thing.

C) patience is a good virtue.

D) it’s good chatting with the others when you are in trouble.

55. According to this passage, what happened in the author’s neighborhood?

A) People held a party to celebrate the flood.

B) The electricity was cut off due to the flood.

C) People gathered together to share wine in flood season.

D) It was a custom to get out to cook over fire.

Passage Two

Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.

The media can impact current events. As a graduate student in Berkeley in the 1960s, I remember experiencing the events related to the People’s Park that were occurring on campus. Some of these events were given national media coverage in the press and on TV. I found it interesting to compare my impressions of what was going on with perceptions obtained from the news media. I could begin to see events of that time feed on news coverage. This also provided me with some healthy insights into the distinctions between these realities.

Electronic media are having a greater impact on the people’s lives every day. People gather more and more of their impressions for representation. Television and telephone communications are linking people to a global village, or what one writer calls the electronic city. Consider the information that television brings into your home every day. Consider also the contact you have

with others simply by using telephone. These media extend your consciousness and your contact. For example, the video coverage of the 1989 San Francisco earthquake focused on “live action”such as the fires and the rescue efforts. This gave the viewer the impression of total disaster. Television coverage of the Iraqi War also developed an immediacy. CNN reported events as they happened. This coverage was distributed worldwide. Although most people were far away from these events, they developed some perception of these realities.

In 1992, many people watched in horror as riots broke out on a sad Wednesday evening in Los Angeles, seemingly fed by video coverage from helicopters. This event was triggered by the verdict in the Rodney King beating. We are now in an age when the public can have access to information that enables it to make its own judgments, and most people, who had seen the video of this beating, could not understand how the jury was able to acquit the policemen involved. Media coverage of events as they occur also provides powerful feedback that influences events. This can have harmful results, as it seemed on that Wednesday night in Los Angeles. By Friday night the public got to see Rodney King on television pleading, “Can we all get along?”By Saturday, television seemed to provide positive feedback as the Los Angeles riot turned out into a rally for peace. The television showed thousands of people marching with banners and cleaning tools. Because of that, many more people turned out to join the peaceful event they saw unfolding on television. The real hearing, of course, will take much longer, but electronic media will continue to be a part of that process.

56. The best title for the passage is “”.

A) The 1992 Los Angeles Riots

B) The Impact of Media on Current Events
