<p>Stay in school!
You do not want to be in the workforce in this economy.</p>
<p>A lot of schools that you apply to will wonder about your social and emotional maturity if you graduate much younger than the average. College is much different than just going to class and doing your daily homework as you do in high school.</p>
<p>Also, are your parents prepared to treat you like a college student–giving you the independence and freedom you will need to do well in college? Will your parents let you go away to college and live in a dorm? If you stay home in college, do your parents realize that your life will still differ substantially from your life in high school ? A lot of college classes are in the evening. A lot of study groups and review sessions meet in the evening. Social activities occur in the evening. You may need to be on campus at odd times to access the resources you need. Will your parents be ok with this? </p>
<p>Will you be ok going to classes with students many years older than you are? Not all college students are 18–many in your classes as a matter of course may be 21 or 22, not counting those older students who return to school later in life.</p>
<p>you have a lot to think about.</p>
