k-12 is different abroad, period, it is at much higher level than in the USA, including those who have only 10 years and they start kids in school at 7, not 5. The USA k-12 is pretty ridiculous waste of everything. It is evident to all who immigrate here. Some immigrants communities organize their own schools to supplement k - 12 so that kids are actually prepared fo college, not just equipped with the knowledge of how to fill in the blanks. So much waste, boring non-challenging busy work, as exception, English is taught at the reasonable level, nothing else, not even close. However, colleges at some other countries also take 5 years. They do not focus too much on general studies, since general studies are covered very well before college.
