What is a "year"?
A year refers to a specific group of students who are in the same academic level and progress through their studies together over the course of an academic period, such as a school year. This group usually moves through the same curriculum and often shares similar experiences throughout the year. In schools or universities, students are often referred to by their year, such as first-year, second-year, or final-year students, depending on how far they are in their educational program.
