Ever Passed High School?

Post Reply New Topic

I didn't, and I can't. I'm in grade 11, but I never passed because I wasn't in main stream.

I'm going to graduate either this spring, summer, or fall. Right when I'm supposed to!

Awesome. :3

I wish I was mainstreamed now...

I got my diploma, but I barely made it through a couple of classes. One was a Jewelry class. I was afraid to use the equipment because it seemed dangerous and scary to me. The other was an American Lit class. The teacher was really horrible and the class was boring. I got Ds in both of those classes.

Guh. Puhleeze don't be taking high school for granted. Yes, High School features many stupid, malicious students, and many ignorant, unqualified teachers. But DO NOT underestimate the power college has to completey murder free time.

Take it from a student who spent all night working on 2 different Ethnographic research papers, and gets less than 20 hours of sleep on bad weeks. You can argue that high school can be harder socially because of ignorant, immature people, and this is true, but after you stay up 72 consecutive hours, your perspective WILL change.

p.s. I'm sorry if I was curt or anything, just please, get your sleep and enjoy it. College will eat that time up gone.

Wait, if I didn't pass high school, does that mean I can't get a decent job?

If you do the exams and courses later on, you will.

I passed high school.

Exams? Eh?

I had a friend who never passed HS; he ended up getting accepted to college, and just didn't finish his requirements (he was supposed to). Always thought it was kind of funny.
