As a sort of a follow-up of my other question (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Al6YpaoYJCIDB7EzAKDzZTnsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20071120154346AAOuak9), this one relates but it isn't necessary at all for you to read the other one in order to answer this one.

Question: Are there any exceptions to the rule of having to be 16 to take the GED? Is there a test very similar to it that has a lower age requirement? I'm thirteen years old, by the way. I know someone who took their GED (and passed) at either 14 or 15, but the age requirement being 16 now puzzles me because of that.
If I don't get any answers here (or even if I do), I'll definitely ask that person about it.

Thank you so much!

From the following Movie clip "Good Will Hunting". What does Fenway mean. Is it misspelling?
Thanks,
No, not a lick. When I look at a piano, I see a bunch of keys, three pedals and a box of wood. But beethoven, Mozart, they saw it. They could just play. I couldn't paint you a picture. I probably can’t hit the ball out of the Fenway. And I can’t play the piano

I just took the ACT for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and i made a 16 without studying. In order to get a full scholarship i need to make a 28. The next and last test for this year is in about two in a half weeks, and i need to make a decent score. Ive been studying a little for the past week or so. What is the best guide to use, and do you think i can score that high in that amount of time?

so let's say someone's saying a sentence or two to me.
so for example they are like "my mother is going ... &%&(*()&())(&*^%(" and then those symbols mean i didn't understand what i said.

when i say "excuse me?" they emphasize "MY MOTHER IS GOING".

they repeat the part that i heard but not the part i didn't hear.

why can't they just repeat the whole damn sentence?

-AP: Total of 2 AP classes in my high school years
-AP Test: Biology:5 , taking Physic this year
-I live in CA
-I was never involved with sports and music
-I completed the a-g UC required courses
-my personal statement is...not that good...

He couldn't bear to see their faces darkened with shame. Jonas bowed his head and searched through his mind. What had he done wrong?"
