Hey, Im a 10th grader and most of my classes at school are mostly computer and web classes. Someone was telling me that I can test out of my feild and math and go into college my junior year. The credits would count both as college and high school credits. Is this true?

You need to speak with you school and find out what kind of programs they have for this.

You should definitely speak with your guidance counselor, but be aware that you would have to be an astounding student to do this.

It depends on your district, too. I was able to take several college classes while still in high school, but I didn't actually LEAVE high school to do so. Based on your username, can we assume you want to do this because you're getting married???

not exactly

i was planning on getting married but i cant because of the age of the guy, but i would like to get some college out of the way before i do get married in a a lil over a year or so. I want to be at least as close to done with college or have a really good start on it so if my marriage dont work out i will have something to fall back on. Not only that but if the marriage does work i want to be able to have an income more than just his to proved for us and if we have kids. I want to know that i have somewhat of a stable futrue before i do get married or even if i dont. High school is not for me, its to easy and im not getting anything from it.

Hon... Based on the way you write, you are in no way ready to leave HS - for college or anything else. For someone who claims HS is too easy and you're not getting anything from it, your writing is abysmal. being good at math and science isn't everything, and even in those fields you need to be able to communicate clearly with your coworkers and peers. You're nowhere near that.

this is a chat. its like im writing a term paper, ok. with a grade point average of 4.0 then i think im good to go. im not goin to set and make everything i say correct. im just tryin to get the info i need. if u dont want to help then that ok, just let it alone.

No, it actually is not a chat. It is a site to provide legal information. And you say a lot about yourself by how you present your information.

As for your 4.0 - doesn't impress me. I've seen what passes for 4.0 work, and a lot of it sucks.

stay in HS and do not get married until you have at least a Bachelor's degree.
