Independent study for math: meaningless

<p>Hi guys,</p>

<p>Just been feeling depressed lately, and had to vent, and I'm seeking any type of feedback. I'm in 10th grade, honors geometry math, and I was given the opportunity of taking the 11th grade January final today; I'd been self studying for some time. I took the 11th grade one first, which was Algebra 2, and did fairly well, in my opinion, however, I keep finding out that I got numerous questions wrong, and its really upsetting. My reason for doing this would be to join Algebra 2 the next semester, and then do calculus in 11th grade, so I can somewhat catch up to the incrementing competitive academic world, where kids do calc in like 5th grade. I'm exaggerating, albeit trying to get a point across.....Now, I had to get over a 90 on the final, and if I don't get in, humiliation from all sides won't be the only thing pouring in. (My school is very traditionalist and gave me a hard time to even let me take the final; furthermore, the boorish kids in my school incessantly taunt others who try to further themselves). I'm usually very good in mathematics, I'm just very upset if I've relinquished the chance to get in. I can't even study for my final tomorrow, I'm just so nervous...</p>

<p>P.S. I got a 100 on Geometry, but I'm really counting on this.....and I continuously keep finding out which questions I get wrong....</p>

<p>Don’t be so stressed. I self studied Algebra II/PreCal and my school still won’t let me take Calculus. So now I leave PreCal everyday and go to a university to take Calculus II(Because that totally makes sense). I’m taking the AP Calc BC test this May which will further devalue the time I’m going to waste in Calculus(high school) next year. Just relax.</p>

<p>Some school administrations are actually quite lenient on skipping grades.
My school, for example, said that i needed a 95%+ on both finals to skip trigonometry. I got a 80% on one final and 90% on the other.
I skipped trigonometry. </p>

<p>Don’t stress too much</p>
