(PS: Jean LOVED the idea of sleeping in to go to a 10:30 college class twice a week (and get REAL credit!) rather than a five day 1 hour HS class ..... just to get a HS piece of paper that would (two years later) allow her to take the same college class.)
Even working hard in an AP high school class only permits you to take an AP test that might be good enough to let you get college credit for one or two semesters.
She says her college classes for real credit from a real prof. were easier than the HS AP classes anyway, since they weren't trying to teach "everything" that "might" be asked on the AP test. Much less pressure that way.

It is nice to know that there are other families that have found alternate ways to get around high school. Some kids just cannot sit and be bored for 6 or 7 hours a day.
