Is there any way you can help me to look up at schools that don't require GCSE's?

You’ve gotta be in full time education until 18
Have a look at local colleges and colleges in nearby towns and cities

You’ll need to go to a school that offers GCSEs to begin with

GCSEs take approximately 1-2 years, and then either a levels/BTEC/IB/or an apprenticeship will take 2 years. After that you’ll go to university (normally)

oh God that's a lot of time! do I have any other options that are not going to take more than 2 years?

Do they have equivalent qualifications in Italy like ib middle years programme that you might have done?

Do you have any qualifications at the moment? And what are you thinking of studying at university?
no :frown:
no because it Italy you get your first qualification after the age of 19 and for University I don't have a specific plan yet but I'm probably going to study something related to science

You'll need to get the qualifications to apply for university first, which will take a few years

Il diploma di scuola superiore non ce l'hai? Se la risposta è allorapuoi utilizzare quello oppure ti tocca rifare almeno matematica ed inglese gcse in un college

You’ll most likely need GCSEs to begin with, and then go into further education of an a level type. (Universities require qualifications at specific standards e.g: an a level in biology)
ho 17 anni e facevo lo scientifico quindi il diploma non c'è l'ho ancora però non mi va di fare 3 anni prima di andare all'università

secondo me è meglio continuare la scuola in italia. Prendi il diploma e poi torna qui perché dovrai fare almeno 3+ anni e ti spego anche perché: dato che non hai il diploma ti tocca rifare matematica ed inglese (come ho detto prima) + altri gcse (dipende da quello che vuoi fare). Dopodiché, se hai i voti, dovrai iniziare i tuoi a levels. Solo dopo avverli finiti puoi fare domanda quindi sono 3 anni se vuoi fare i gcse in un anno
I read on internet that BTEC don't require GCSE is that right?
oramai sono già qui perché mi sono trasferita con la mia famiglia e in una scuola mi hanno detto che posso fare i GCSE's a settembre ma ho troppo poco tempo per prepararmi però avevo sentito che potevo frequentare i college ne sai qualcosa?
