I graduated in June 1976 and turned 20 in August 1976. High school graduation was June 1973. It was good to be a 16 year old high school senior with a driver's license for a car. I rode my Honda CB175 to school starting at age 15 1/2 with a permit. Graduating early from high school and college just requires the tenacity to attend every summer school session offered and reap the maximum number of credits allowable.
Right. My daughter was getting credit during her last 2 years in high school from our community college. She'll going to summer school soon.
I'm trying to slow her down. I tell her she needs to enjoy her youth, she'll be grown, and out on her own soon enough. What's the rush? :-)
