I wasn't wild about school but it was easy and what are you going to do without at least a high school diploma

I dropped out of high school and got my GED... I am in college now wesley!! Although I feel you should stick it out because there is a lot of stuff you will miss out on if you do quit....

I didn't finish (graduate), but I didn't quit - I was there, trying to finish, to the last (and for a few months afterwards, until I had to start college at which point it became moot).

I quit in February of my senior year. I hated school and it was the best thing I ever did. I went to night school and got my diploma the same year and went on to college. Sometimes the timing is not right. My sister dropped out as a high-school sophomore and is now on her way to getting her second master's degree.

I just read that in 2002, the GED test will be made much more difficult... and I am glad... It always pissed me off that I spent all that time and hard work to get my diploma and people can take a very simple test to get what is supposed to be an equivalent.

I got my GED but only because my credits got so screwed up from switching schools so many times that graduation was virtually impossible.

If there had been a suitable alternative, I would have switch. I pretty much hated high school, but there were few other options.

Took the proficiency in the beginning of 12th grade and got out a semester early. I didn't see any reason to hang around anymore as I could care less about the graduation ceremonies. I'd only been waiting for my freedom my whole life, geez...

Well, I quit highschool last year... but I think Im going to go to a boarding/prep school next year. It is such a complete and utter waste of time. The problem is that I intend to go to college, so I dont think I really have that much of a choice.
