<p>Alright, this is my dilemma.</p>

<p>Due to a certain incident at school I am forced to stop taking classes at my high school, instead, because I have all the credits needed to graduate, I am giving the option of taking classes at a local CC.</p>

<p>My classes and grades (highest/lowest possible)
Speech A/B
H Physics A/B
Info Processing A/B
AP Lit C/F
AP World A/B
work Exp A</p>

<p>My rank is 169/874 which puts me in the top 20%
My UW GPA is around 3.39
W GPA is around 3.7, +/-1
My HS transcript is 2x longer than the average person - I took much more classes, independent study and community college.
My financial situation is terrible, even with financial aid more then 5k in loans each year is out of the question.</p>

<p>Considering all of these what would be more appealing for colleges and the best choice in general?
-Graduate in April while taking CC classes.
-Get my GED, apply to spring semester for colleges
-Get my GED, attend CC for two years then transfer to a 4yr college.
-Take a CHESP (I'm not sure on the name), basically California test to graduate early but it does not count out of state.</p>

<p>Thanks for reading and serious advice greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>v.1.1, I am posting this multiple subforums because I don't think everyone browses this whole forum.</p>

<p>v.1.2, My prospective colleges are mostly composed of those found on the 'Colleges that Change lives' list, UC's. added one more option.</p>

<p>I think you should take the CHSPE, which is the equivalent of a high school diploma. That's what I did. You won't have to worry about it "not counting" out-of-state, because it really won't matter once you graduate from college.</p>

<p>Btw, by incident, do you mean you were put on academic probation by your school or something? Suspension? Expulsion? I'm a little confused.</p>
