I'm actually young for third year here as well!

So I went to an American school abroad until 9th grade, then I moved to Ireland. In Ireland there are 6 years of secondary school, and based on my age, I should have gone in to 3rd year. However, I had already covered most of that content abroad, and in Ireland 4th year is optional. In the Irish system, only the last 2 years covers content you need for the final exam which will ultimately get you into college, so I decided to just go up into 5th year.

It worked out well for me anyway. I graduated early and I managed to score fairly highly in that final exam!
