You need to check it in a dictionary if you know IPA (the phonetic alphabet). It's important to be able to read phonetic transcriptions in dictionaries. Anyway, I would say American commonly say skeh-jool .

KooyeenBrits might prefer to say sheh-dyool,
Yes, that's the more usual pronunciation in the UK, and also the way I say it, but some people over here do say "sked-yool". In the UK, whether it's "-jool" or "-dyool" is mostly a question of how much care you take over your diction. "-dyool" is better IMO, but it easily slurs and comes out as "-jool",

KooyeenI would say American(s) commonly say skeh-jool.In the U.S., yes. But not necessarily true in all of North America. I think Canadians say it differently.
