Just Chat! / Calling all students...

There seems to be quite a few students on here from around the world. [] I am from the UK and I'm studying A-levels but I was wondering what the schooling system was like in other countries. In the UK (to those of you who don't live in the UK) the system generally goes:
High school: Ages 11-16, study GCSE's in last two years.
Sixth Form/College: Ages 16-18, study A-levels or vocational courses.
University: 18+ Degree
I know that all countries do degrees but was wondering what students do before. Universities in the UK generally set entry requirements as A-level grades. Do universities in other countries set their entry grades with the countries equivalent to A-levels?
