Not familiar with that test. If it serves to prove you have enough knowledge in various subjects to be exited from H.S., go ahead. In order for your dissatisfaction to be left behind with the school, and not stay in your personality, be sure to create a plan for yourself. You'll be looking for and going to work? It's a challenge even for those with degrees, so be forewarned not to throw in the towel and feel bad if you don't find employment right away, or at some point can't move up to a better position. Later, if you find the 'adult world' of work and responsibilities too much to handle, you can lift your spirits and impress prospective empolyers by taking some courses at your local junior college. The environment is soooooo different, and the learning experience is a much more positive one (well, the instructors treat you more like peers, fellow mature individuals, not subservient children). If you exit H.S., consider going straight to an academic counselor at the college and have a candid talk about what does/doesn't interest you. The counselor will have your interests at heart, and you may have a very positive experience. Ask about FINANCIAL AID--it's like getting paid to learn (I really liked THAT part!) Best of luck to you.

smoking and partying aren't very good reasons for hating high school. if you want to quit school so you can go party and get high more often, then you should stay in school, get your degree and while you're at it, accept some responsibility. because once you're out of high school, you have this question before you: what now? will you get a job? will you go to college? will you knock up the first girl you dupe into sleeping with you? i'm all for enjoying life and living each day like it's your last, but don't fizzle out before you're 30, man. think about it.

getting out of hs is not a good thing. I'm 46yrs old and i left hs and i did get my ged but you cant get any where in this world without a hs ed. and at least some college or trade school. if you leave you will regret it later down the road later believe me. just hang in there you only have the rest of this year and next to go. you quit you will have to get a job and work full tome and you have the time or energy to party as much i know

Honestly, you should check with your guidence councl. at school and see if your high school offeres a program that allows you to go to college and still get credit towards high school. They usually allow you to attened a community college, where you can pick your own schedule and then you are out of the high school drama. I hated high school, I was a nerd and very out of place. My Jr. and Sr year I only had one class at high school and spent the rest of the day in college, before I graduated I had almost completed my major.
It's worth looking into if you like to learn, but just hate high school.

you've made it all the way to junior year. opting out the easy way doesn't look as good on resumes. personally, i got my GED and started traveling around the country via my thumb sticking out to flag down rides. I've had a LOT of fun, and have no regrets.I didn't make it to junior year, though. I spent three years in the freshman class because i kept getting expelled before i had enough time to pass my classes.

Do you expect to get a job after you drop out?
Do you think employers will find you are more attractive candidate for employment without a traditional high school diploma, compared to other candidates with a diploma?
Suck it up and stay in school.

No, education is an important part of your life, if you have good grades means that despite all your feelings you have potencial, don't let it go to waste.

If you want more out of life, STAY IN SCHOOL! You will never get anywhere without a degree.
