is 5'6 tall or short for a 15 year old?

Answer 1

What difference does it make. You're healthy aren't you??? I'm 25 and 5'2". And, I THINK I'm done growing. Does that make me tall or short for my age?

Answer 2

I would say normal, I was about 5'6 when I was 15 and I am 19 now and I am 5'7 so thats probably about the height you will be for the rest of your life.

Answer 3

Average. You should be done growing at age 15. I was 5-5 then and am 5-5, 9 years later.

Answer 4

It doesn't really matter.

When you get the answer to this question, if you don't like it, what would you plan on changing anyways? If it's short, what would you do? Make yourself taller? Yeah right. I'd suggest not worrying about it.

Everyone's different and if you don't like that, I'm sorry, but there is no safe way to make yourself taller. It makes no sense to dwell on something like that, especially when there are millions of people like me, a perfectly normal 18 year old, who's only 5'2". But I don't plan on worrying about it.

Answer 5

I would say it is a good height......more women are shorter than 5'6. I was 5'6 at 15 and the boys start to catch up soon.

Answer 6

No, it's tall for a 15 year old. It's average to tall for a grown woman. HTH.

Answer 7

I'm going to say, since you probably passed your growth spurt, you are about average. If you are still growing, then you are going to be tall. For 15, like I said a little average.

Answer 8

LMAO! A lot of people are sayin that thats kind of tall. I would say its short because I'm 6'3 and I'm only 14, but in your case I would say that its average unless you are sure you are done with puberty.

Answer 9

i am 14 and i am 5' 3 and i've gone through my growth spurt. on the other hand my sister is 25 and she is 4'11. my dad is 5'4 and mom is 5' 0
so for a boy i guess you are a little short

Answer 10

for a girl you are average for your age and an adult for a boy i believe that is average for 15 but short for an adult
