Greece

Hi epit,
 
In Greece at the end of the school year students in both junior and senior high schools take exams on almost all the subjects they were taught during the school year. The questions are set by the teachers who teach the same subject to each grade.
 
Apart from their school exams, senior high school students who are in their last year take university entrance exams on certain subjects depending on what they wish to study. The questions in these exams are the same for all students all over the country. An English exam is only taken by students who want to be English teachers or follow a career in tourism or the media.
 
Regards
