"When you turn sixteen in my country, you take a test and if you grade high enough, you can go to college for two years or take the option of 6th Form.

"I had scored quite high on this test, and was in a private 6th form school for boys in Baths. I could have taken the option to join the work force, or even go to college from there. But I just did not feel ready."
He looked a little nervous, now.
