The Swedish Section includes the Social and Natural Science programmes, and has been offering the Nursing Programme (omvårdnadsprogrammet) since 2006. The admission to Kungsholmen's Gymnasium is consistently one of the toughest in the Stockholm area.

Famous quotes containing the word study:
“The most excellent and divine counsel, the best and most profitable advertisement of all others, but the least practised, is to study and learn how to know ourselves. This is the foundation of wisdom and the highway to whatever is good.... God, Nature, the wise, the world, preach man, exhort him both by word and deed to the study of himself.”
—Pierre Charron (1541–1603)
