Sophomore doesn't really help us over here! What age are you? * At 16 you'll be in Year 12 or 6th Form - You'll be studying your A - Levels (which will last 2 years) Which subjects are the same as GCSE - (English, Maths, Geography, Biology ect...) From Wikipedia: Students will typically study in either the Sixth Form of a School, a Sixth form college, or a further education college. These courses can also be studied by adults over 18. This sector is referred to as Further Education. All 16-18 students are encouraged (this is only mandatory in some institutions) to study Key Skills in Communication, Application of Number and Information Technology

if you 16 when you come to the UK you could be put in high school or a college, both are free, you can go to any college you like and do up to 3-4 A- levels of your choice, but it depends also on your grades like for example if your failed maths you might have to re-take it in college. you will do A-levels for 2 years.
