Yeah I know why is a 8th grader so worried about college already, But I only have 4 years but anyway.
so there is this program at USC where during your senior year you are at college for your freshman year, and well i think its a cool idea, but I'm not sure, I mean that is my senior year gone. But I was wondering would anyone else do it? |

I might not go to college early, but if I go to this one highschool :: LA HARBOR COLLEGE HIGHSCHOOL::, I get half the credits i need to graduate while graduating highschool.
 Thing is, I miss out on prom, dances, and football gmes.

Sure, why not? If you think you can handle it then go for it. Senior year isn't all that fun, trust me! It's the most stressful year because you don't wanna fail any of your classes.
I skipped a year so I could go to college early, but I rather take a year off. But that's just me because I'm lazy  .

If you can make it, go for it. I'll be a junior next year and I'm already looking for colleges. It's never bad to start early.

What's IB?
And no, I'm already in my Junior year. I don't want too much pressure and everything. |

hmm . the good thing about going to college early is that u can be done with school for good. and move on have a job and shit. but the bad part is u'll miss all the good memories u will have staying in highschool for 4 years. and u'll miss out on friends =\

I actually AM going to college early. I'm 15(a sophomore), but by the end of this year I'll have all my high school credits, so I'm graduating. I've already got accepted into colleges and all.

But even so, if I was offered.. I might consider it. That would be amazing if I ever got accepted to a college early. I don't have enough credits yet =T |
