    5 miles? Egad, we walked 15 miles for 4 days out in the cold, wind, rain and snow! Wearing the same clothes and carrying all our belongings on our backs. Psh...

    It all depends on your field. It seems like it differs in America because they actually let you chose what you want to take, wheather it be hard, easy, science, english, mathmatics, or etc.

    Saski is correct. I know some kids that took many years of Physics, Calculus, and other math classes in high school. I focused more on business classes and chemistry/biology because I thought I might have wanted to be a doctor. They don't shove things down your throat that you don't want to take.

    For the last time, I've taken calculus before. I scored very well on the Advanced Placement test, and could have skipped to a higher course, but it's not necessary for my major, so why torture myself?
