It depends on the person and the type of and/or degree of mental retardation. Why doesn't this person want to take special classes? Knowledge is golden no matter how it is achieved.
PLUS
How much drive does this person have to achieve. Having graduated from a university I know it takes as much, if not more perseverance than brains to earn a degree. I feel the same about high school.
Good Luck and God's blessings to this person.

It depends upon the level of disability. I think it would be really difficult, especially in light of all the high stakes testing that takes place. I wouldn't recommend it because the challenges will be tremendous. The person might become so overwhelmed with the struggle that he or she might give up and quit. All schools are required by federal law to provide help for kids who have special needs. It's not a cop out or a waste of time. Kids in my school are given the help they need to be successful in the classroom. Many of them go on to college.
