Évfolyamot

"Évfolyamot" is a Hungarian word that translates to "academic year" or "grade level" in English. It refers to the period of time within an educational institution during which a student progresses through a particular stage of their studies. In the Hungarian education system, students typically move through "évfolyamok" from primary school to higher education.

The concept of "évfolyamot" is fundamental to how schooling is structured. Students in the same "évfolyam" generally cover the same curriculum and are expected to reach similar learning milestones. Progression from one "évfolyam" to the next is usually dependent on successful completion of the preceding year's academic requirements, often involving passing examinations or meeting specific performance criteria.

The term is also used to denote a specific cohort of students who started their education at the same time and are progressing together. For instance, one might refer to "the matriculation class of 2020" as a particular "évfolyam." This collective sense of an "évfolyam" can foster a sense of community and shared experience among students. The duration of an "évfolyam" can vary depending on the educational level, with primary and secondary school years typically being one year long, while university programs might span multiple years for a single "évfolyam" or degree.
