High school class of 2016

<p>yes while highschool is great because there’s more opportunities for social interaction and independence, i also hate how careful you have to be with everything. for me, high school is a calculated mess, if that makes any sense. like for example i have to make sure i get certain grades, do some accomplishment, and be the best i can be. it’s not like middle school anymore where nothing mattered and you cold slack off if you wanted to. i just miss not having to stress over school 24/7…</p>

<p>and sorry for the typos, im on ipad.</p>

<p>@letmeseetheworld Just wondering.</p>

<p>“high school is a calculated mess”</p>

<p>Kamel!</p>

<p>Yes there are large barriers between grades at my school. At pep rallies, the freshman get booed. Just for being freshman. Also it’s so competitive. Everyone is comparing grades and scores.</p>

<p>high school is fun for the sports and people you meet. I’m a bit disappointed that I don’t get as much work as I expected.</p>

<p>Disappointed? Why would anyone ever want more work?</p>

<p>I asked my counselor about graduating HS in 3 years and he said colleges like to see how a student handles 4 years of the same school. Now I don’t really know how true that is, but I still want to.</p>

<p>Are you going to take the fourth year off? If so, what do you plan on doing?</p>

<p>College instead of senior year.</p>

<p>Why do you want to start college early?</p>

<p>I don’t like HS and college is the opposite(I hear), so I should love it</p>

<p>I don’t blame you for not liking HS. Good luck with that. Do you already know where you want to go or study?</p>

<p>The opposite how…?</p>

<p>Are you sure you hate hs after only one semester? I thought I hated my new school for the first two years, but now I see that it’s actually not that bad.</p>

<p>And cramming all you work and balancing a social life / free time (though i dont think that last part matters too much to you cause you didn’t like the competitiveness between classmates)
Will just make the 2.5 years you’d have left more stressful.</p>

<p>Eh, nvm I guess I won’t. Most of my mandatory stuff will be done before Junior year considering I only need 1 year of math left (I think, maybe I don’t need any more) and 1 year of science left. Since I am planning to take the SATs in spring of soph and fall of junior and the ACT I shouldn’t have much left for senior year anyways, so I’ll be able to send my college apps by September and chill for the rest of the year, just finishing the mandatory fluff classes, like health and ceramics. and about college being the opposite ([College:</a> The Anti-High School](<a href=“http://www.college-admission-essay.com/collegeantihighschool.html]College:”>http://www.college-admission-essay.com/collegeantihighschool.html)). College is supposed to be less rigid, it’s up to you. Sure you have required courses but your schedule is made by you, all the work is up to you, you aren’t babied through it. In college you are more independent, also you are older and can do more stuff.</p>

<p>EveningSwan, yes. </p>

<p>Letmeseetheworld, I’m in Indiana, so for Engineering (desired field) there is Purdue and Rose-Hulman.</p>

<p>I think it’s pretty possible depending on what classes you take. Most people have eight classes throughout the whole year with four a semester. Where I live you only need 28 credits to graduate. In two years you can have 16 credits and aside from that some people have already gained 1 or 2 math credits from middle school. In .5 years that 16 can add up to 20. You can also take online classes after school and over the summer.But ofcourse if you take challenging class there will be more work which would make it stressful…</p>

<p>But yeah, I think it’s possible . I’ve read an article about a lady who graduated college in 2 years with a 4 year degree at the top of her class.</p>

<p>Oh yeah, I forgot you took some HS classes when you were in Middle School. I guess it all makes sense now. (your processing, not necessarily your reasoning). Either way you seem like you’ll be on top of things</p>

<p>maybe ill dual whatever in senior year</p>
