Graduating Early Options

[YDG]

So, I have been thinking about graduating high school early so I can get a jump start on college, and I have a week to get back to my counselor to make my final decision. What are your thoughts on graduating early? Do you think there will be any big disadvantages to it?

I'm trying to graduate early, and take my last two classes that I need in summer school, so I can go to school part time, and be able to take the management position I was offered at work. Your thoughts?

I don't really feel like I have much freedom being in high school. I actually feel like time constraints are my biggest enemy. Between school and my job, I have two hours of time in between. Yeah, everyone is telling me to savor my high school years, but I haven't enjoyed the past three years, and I don't see what staying another year would do, especially if my school is making it mandatory I take six classes when I only need two.

The credits are going towards finishing out the credits I need to graduate high school. I'm a Junior, and I am still trying to decide what I want to go to college for, but it is between graphic or web designing, but I'm leaning more towards web. I have some college credits already done by taking AP classes here in high school. So being in school full-time would be much cheaper?

All right, thanks for elaborating. I think that in your situation, it would make sense to graduate early. And no, it wouldn't necessarily be cheaper, but I can't say since I don't know where you want to take college classes, what the credit hour rates are, etc. You should look into being part-time vs. being full-time and calculate how much it would cost to do one or the other. What kind of job would you have? If you could get an internship doing web or graphic design then that would be good. Also, I agree with JC re:

if you aren't
if you want to be more gangster and get rich or die trying then maybe you should get your hustle on and graduate early.
