For that there need to be some topic which do not immeadiately imping on their "fear detector", probably something completely new. | |

In fact those attending the seminar will have 13 years of school behind them. (But we will soon switch to a new system where one only has to go to school for 12 years before the so-called Abitur.) | |

| Mar 25, 2011 at 15:25 | comment | added | user9072 | @JNR: Until somebody who knows this better comes along a tentative answer: "Abitur" is the name used in Germany for the final exam at the end of high-school (so age 18/19 after 12/13 years of school). In other words: the background is only high-school mathematics. What this high-school maths means in detail in the place where the questioner is, is unknown to me. | |
