If you are 18, have enough credits for UE but have only one exam to sit can the school demand that you attend school everyday or can you ask to be allowed to leave (and work) and then go back for the exam? 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

You must attend school up to the age of 16. Most schools allow students that have completed their credits to leave and return for the exams.
