I don't know that I passed it... Although I highly doubt I failed. I'm actually on my way to take the last half of it now.

Just curious, why are you taking the GED test to get a diploma at 17? Most people I've talked to get their GED because they couldn't finish high school on time for some reason, but based on your age, you should be a senior now, right? I just don't think I've seen someone get a GED to graduate high school early, so I was wondering.

Actually, this would be my junior year. Birthday in August.
But to make a long story short, I left home, and having been home schooled since 5th grade, I didn't really have that option anymore. And when I tried to enroll at a public school, they said I wouldn't receive credit for the work I did while home schooling. I would have to retake 2 years if I chose to finish high school. So, I'm getting my GED and starting college classes.

Oh? I was completely homeschooled. What state was that in? I think legally they have to accept the fact that u were homeschoole and can't make u retake stuff. Cuz homeschooling is a legal means of schooling. I homeschoole my kids for the first year er two of school and the school started then where I left off.

Some schools do not realize that tho and think that they don't have to count homeschooling.

and @ x2..... I don't think getting kicked out counts :P lol BUt I am glad u decided to go for ur ged, buddy :)
 
It's legal. And besides that, a school doesn't have to enroll me after I turn 17, as it's not required for a 17 year old to be in school.

Haha wow! Well they were a little nicer to me, they basically said "you've missed so many days it's pretty much impossible for you to catch up". So I left and tried the alternative program which was a freaking joke, then I tried home school and that just didn't work. So the GED was my last option.
 
Yeah, homeschooling is a joke these days to schools and colleges, apparently. I plan to take the GED just to be sure I can get into college since I've home-schooled all my life.

It reall seems unfair and not right for u to have to take a ged when u were homeschooled.:/
 
Yep. The concert I went to on New Years was the best I've ever seen. Waited so long to get front row seats... John Cooper SWEAT on me :DDDD
 
Disciple blew me away. They played screamo for close to an hour and Kevin's voice managed VERY well. The screaming is good, but my favoririte track was a little less scream and a little more sing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DTOikjNQhw&feature=fvst <3333
