Did you drop out of highschool?

[endlessnameless]

Irish - Graduated in 2006 but had to go to a private grind school in the city center for two more years to gain enough points to get into college for my BA in Journalism.

 

[Mr. Krinkle]

Hell yea - I got my GED 2 weeks after I signed myself out

I hated high school

 

[Alekzandrovitch]

I did and I made up for it in phases. My education level is fine now.

 

[SoCalShordie]

Surprisingly, I actually graduated on time (in 2010) and with a 3.5 GPA. Despite my troubled youth. Then I started dancing at a strip club for dolla billz like 2 weeks later.

 

[Jeanpauldash]

Ah, yes, friend

What with the government conspiracy and all

I drank my tussin and went on my way after failing a few classes and hiding in the counselors office

Once they gave me during the summer iss

Totally bizarre I ran around an empty school crying

 

[Jeanpauldash]

Of course I got my ged. What am I, a savage

I don't know if I should get my GED or not. If I did get it though I would probably go to college afterwords and then go into the medical field.

My school was closed when I was in 11th grade. I started 12th grade in another school, but dropped out after a few weeks.
Did my Abitur (high school diploma that certifies you're fit for college/university) two years later attending distance/weekend classes.

And there I thought you were a chemistry professor.
Shows how little a piece of paper says about a person's knowledge, and less their intelligence.

I quit high school and got my ged 2 weeks later...I didn't study at all... Piece of cake

 

[Mr. Krinkle]

Looks like i said that already

I'm just gonna repeat myself repeat myself

 

[MedicinalUser247]

I almost got my GED once, but I didn't take the math portion of the test because I'm bad in math and I though I needed to study more. So I dropped out of my GED class.

 

[MedicinalUser247]

And by bad in math I mean Dyscalculia.

 

[Mr. Krinkle]

Lol I'm actually good at math...I hate reading and writing...

The reason why I quit was because I hated English class so much that I failed it every year since 10th grade... So when I was a senior, I had 3 English classes - id rather quit than have 3 English classes for a year

 

[MedicinalUser247]

The reason I dropped out of highschool in the first place was because of my paranoia. That and Math.

 

[paltatomate]

I never failed a class, always managed to get the equivalent of C's in languages despite never reading one of those incredibly boring books and stories and worse - poems - we had to. Before tests I just asked one of my classmates to tell me what the thing was about and then I'd take it from there.
I had As in maths and physics and B+s in chemistry and computer science. Never studied, just payed the necessary amount of attention in class and did my homework.

There you go. I'm a nerd.

 

[MedicinalUser247]

As for writing. I wrote a 429 page book. I still need to put in on the computer and give it to an editor.

Meaning you wrote the 429 pages in handwriting or typewriter?

 

[MedicinalUser247]

Handwriting

 

[Jabberwocky]

I dropped out of highschool because I was arrested a few times, then violated probation, then got sent to the psych ward for heroin addiction. They convinced my mom to send me to hardcore rehab programs until the day I turned 18.

My life never really got back on track after that. Institutionalized from a young age.
