<p>No, it is belittling. Suggesting I get a GED in the first place is belittling in my opinion. But to call me immature, unable, and seemingly imply that I’m lying about my background was icing on the cake. Facts? I see no facts, just information I already knew about schools I already said I do not wish to attend.</p>
<p>You are unaware of what my academic history truly is. I can back up my claims fully. It is NOT self-reported. I have more academic potential than most people applying to colleges and can easily verify it without a little piece of paper. I’d say doing college work at the age of 10 says something for academic success, no? I learned more on my own than I ever would have in public school. Take a look at the show “Are you smarter than a 5th grader?” and tell me credentials matter. People with 4.0 gpa’s can’t even answer the basic of questions. To make it even sadder in my opinion, it has been said that on average only 60% of high school graduates can pass the GED. Says a lot for the school system that colleges seem to greatly rely on for a students academic potential.</p>
<p>Do take a look at that previous school I linked since you seem to be greatly misinformed in regards to people in my situation. I’d also suggest a little research on bipolar disorder. And general reading about gifted students in general.</p>
<p>Also feel free to refrain from responding until you can actually give a helpful response. I asked for names of schools, not to be belittled.</p>
