Okay now I am confused, I go to lectures all of 8 hours a week... None of it is mandatory. There is plenty of time to do other stuff with the rest of the time you got?

And exams are marked by your lecturers? Wouldn't that make them terribly biased?

[agnes_bean]

In US schools,tests are generally written and then graded by the professor (or sometimes their TAs in a big class), yes.

[making_excuses]

Oh right you guys do tests too, keep forgetting that, in my three years of higher education I've had 3 tests, the only thing our lecturer corrects is our "term papers" and they are just approved/not approved.
We send exams to a different University for correcting (most of the time, we do some in house correcting if the subject is only taught in one institution)

Professors in the US are given a considerable amount of leeway in how they teach their classes, so it would be difficult for someone other than the professor or a TA to grade any work. Universities often also teach classes under different names or offer classes at certain universities where qualified faculty teach. It's extremely frustrating to transfer colleges because classes don't match up.

[(Anonymous)]

US graduate programs generally require students to take a certain number of courses on top of any sort of dissertation or thesis to receive a degree. (I had to take a full-time course load for 2 years to get a masters in a social science subject.) You are a regular student in these classes, so attendance is as mandatory as the professor makes it and you will have exams and papers and other assignments to complete.

In addition to your coursework, if you are a TA you will have requirements on you time for that, as well. You may or may not be required to attend the lecture, but you will probably be expected to run discussion sections, hold office hours, help proctor exams, grade papers, etc. If you are an RA, you have to put in a certain number of hours in the lab.
