Fyi: it’s called post secondary because, I think, UK calls it primary, secondary, and after that is post secondary.

    Used to. Now it’s optional. People call gr13 the “victory lap”, and it’s primarily to give students an opportunity to get their grades up before applying to universities.

      Grade 13 (called OAC when I was in high school) was not optional for university entrance, it was required. You could attend college with grade 12 but not university.
