Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer. 
The American education system requires that students complete 12 years of primary and secondary 
education prior to attending university or college. This may be accomplished either at public or 
government-operated schools, or at private schools. These 12 years of schooling or their equivalent 
may also be completed outside the USA, thus giving foreign students the opportunity to pursue the 
benefits of the American education system and obtain a quality American education. Perhaps one of 
the most impressive facts is that a large number of presidents, prime ministers and leaders from other 
countries have experienced the American education system and graduated from a university or school 
in the USA. In many fields and industries, the American education system offers the most cutting-
edge, sought-after programs at the world's best schools. That is why graduating from an accredited 
American school and being exposed to the rigors of the American education system is an investment 
in your future. 
Whether you want to study at a top USA university, a top USA college, a vocational or high school, a 
thorough understanding of how the American education system works is essential. Without a clear 
grasp of the American education system, an international student will find it difficult to make the right academic choices. It is no surprise that the American education system and the American school 
system host more international students than any other country in the world.
