So, people go to highschool until they are 40 in the US?

Why is it that in every teen/highschool setting in the US, the juniors/nerds are 13 year olds, while the seniors look like they are closer to 35?

(apart from the girls, who look like they are 25).

Do you have a tendency to re-enroll 3-4 times for every year at school?

Do you have an issue learning basic language and math? =D

No, seriously, am I the only one that has noticed this insane age-difference in just about every move portraying schools in American movies?

Why do they do this?
