Yes, I am interested in that. I guess I am opposed to the GED because in my mind there is a stigma attached. It is perhaps unimportant in the long run, but I'd like to explore every other option first.
If you have an AA, no one is worried about what type of H.S. diploma you have.
My brother-in-law quit school at 16, eventually decided he wanted to go to college, went down to the local Catholic college and talked to the dean who made him a deal. He could attend college and get his GED at the same time. He did. Now he's a vice president of a pediatric care company and doing very well.
If a college wants you, you don't necessarily need a high school diploma, which is something that public schools would rather you didn't know. Homeschoolers know it though.
People are rooting for you on another thread, DameAutour.

There is nothing wrong or stigmatic about a GED. In fact the newly re-elected Governor of the State of Delaware has a GED
