Thanks for your support! Yes, I'm a year and half older than you (actually tomorrow is my 19th birthday), but this was my last year of high school - that's because we have 9 years of elementary school (6 to 15) and then 4 years of high school (15 to 19). Our finals (called "maturita") are in fact divided into 2 parts: written exams in March (Slovak/Literature and English - both tests and essays) and oral exams in May (again Slovak/Literature and English + 2 or 3 subjects of your own choice).

Fingers crossed for you during your finals! I'm sure you'll make it! ;)
