Novice,

There are no privileges associated with a synonym.

Any account that has 'create synonym' privs may create a synonym
for any object in any schema.  Scott created a synonym for an object
owned by hlledw. 

Hlledw may view scott.edw_week_lvl, as it is a synonym pointing to an
object owned by hlledw.  Scott however, has no access to it.

But the interesting point is that scott never granted the privileges on 
the
object to test1

A quick look showed normal behaviour.

You granted as the object owner select to test1 and scott
than as test1 you tried describing a scott object that scott does not own
but only has select rights on thus the error.
after you created the synonym scott owned an object with that name
(pointing to hlldew object) so the describe worked.
