"The exam is always a holiday for me": British schoolchildren celebrated the end of the entrance exams

Thousands of happy and slightly battered schoolchildren flooded the streets of British cities, violently celebrating the results of exams. In the UK, to obtain a certificate of compulsory education (GCSE — General Certificate of Secondary Education), you need to pass the final exams after finishing the 11th grade. However, this certificate is not enough for admission to the university, you need to study for two more years and take the so-called "A" level exams (A-Levels) in three or four subjects. It is these final exams of the 13th year of study that are the entrance exams to the university. The exam is held in May-June, and students will learn the results only in mid-August, which is psychologically difficult.

So in August, from the southern coast of England to the north-eastern part of the country, city streets are filled with tortured schoolchildren who drown all their expectations, nights of poring over textbooks and disappointments in wine.

However, despite the record number of students enrolled in universities this year — 416,310 people, these young people still have a lot to learn. For example, the correct attitude to alcohol.
