This kid probably should go to college. My son took the GED early and went to college. He was bored in high school and I think the high school was glad to see his back. He went on to college and got his nursing degree. After 9/11 applied to all three branches of the military. They all three accepted him. Given his IQ scores and learning abilities, I am sure he did very well on the tests. They certainly offered him many opportunities.

He actually loved the military. He saw it as a place where they encouraged him to do what he could do.

The military gave me a good start but I probably should have went to college first.

The military hasn’t adopted to the new schooling methods yet. It will take some pushing but they will change.
