    No you don't. You do not have anything remotely comparable to college in high school.

    When it's college classes at a college campus, with teachers that teach college level classes, it's college. I'm not taking AP, it's real college that I'm taking

    I would love to see a difference, because from where I'm standing, it's exactly the same as the other people I've taken classes with

    College experience and life is very different than taking college classes. Even from what I've just seen touring campuses and sitting in on classes and stuff, there is a very big difference.

    AWWW YEAH. Party time bro.
    Apparently my school's graduation can run about four hours, I think I might die. e_e
    I've never been there before so yeah, it'll be a different experience. xD

    Thanks. :3
    And I shall B| Though I think I may be visiting Scotland briefly as well.

    Same probably, though I won't miss the ones that have had a hand in making parts of high school hell. >>
    Well she's paying so :lolface:
    She did say she would give us some space though, so I'm hoping she doesn't go back on that. xD;;

    Thanks, it's definitely going to be different. xD
    Thank you sir.
    We will try not to cause too much trouble with our Houndoom and Luxray. :B

    You work hard so you get all of the credits you need to graduate earlier than senior year like my sister who technically finished sophomore year. Then you check to see if you can take college classes through your school. Half a day of high school and half a day of college which is what my school does and the classes are only like $50-$150.

    Crap, it's the devil question. Well, Arapahoe Community College(actually i think it's most colleges now) lets people in Highschool take classes there and get College and Highschool Credit. But they only let you in if you score high enough on an Accuplacer test. It's basically an ACT, but a little bit shorter. (not that that makes it any better). If you score high enough you can take classes at the college. Doesn't mean the classes are any easier, the teachers still grade the same and everything. In fact, I say I've got it worse than some

    Edit: Oh yeah, Auroa Public Schools pays for the tuition as long as you get a C or better. So I'm not paying anything for the next year, because I'm graduating a year early as long as I do fine this next year. And technically next year would be my senior year, but being homeschool has its disadvantages as well. My mom held be back in 8th grade for a year

    So you're taking college classes and high school classes? But not all college classes of that year?

    They don't allow you to take more than 2 till 11th grade, but next semester is Chemestry, English 122, American Government, and Math.(I heard math was easy, but not for me). Taking 2 classes is enough for me, since I procrastinate, 4 is a nightmare.

    My school requires you to take at least half a day of their classes so I can take half of my school's classes and half of a college's classes. Without even going to that said college but the credit you get for the class you took goes with you. So you could be a year or two ahead of the game before high school is even over.

    That's what I meant. It's not comparable to a full year of college classes. But I do understand that you have strict quota to meet, so the "advantage" of still having high school classes is canceled out somewhat.

    If you were me and took this last semester of high school and college, you'd be praying for all college. It was nightmarish

    Now try taking no high school classes and 5 or 6 college classes. It's harder than 2 college classes and high school classes. Trust someone who's been there.


    To the point: Congrats Wolfie! Your graduation present is a hell of a lot better than mine >>. Don't do what I did to celebrate. Not only did I almost get arrested 8 hours before I crossed the stage, but I can barely remember my graduation and the next day is COMPLETELY gone from my memory. Like I woke up two days later at home (where I DID NOT go to sleep) and was told I was doing stuff the entire day I don't remember.


    Anyway...Class of '09 is still lookin' fine.
