For students in “Terminale” or the last year of high school, there is the very important set of public exams called the Baccalaureat which mark the end of their school life. Students may study at least five or six different subjects, which often have more than one exam each. Often these exams are three hours long. You can understand why these students are happy to go on holiday when their exams are finished!
