...and you would have ended up at community college. HS guidance counselors and college admission officers get this type of smartass thinking all the time and the answer never changes. Anyone can take the GED, it proves you aren't a complete waste of space. Anyone with half a brain can also graduate. What separates you from all the other mouth breathers is what you did with those 4 years. I, technically, finished highschool in 2 years. I spent the following 2 taking college prep and AP courses.
And that is how you go to college.
- rabidsnail 17y agoMany (most?) community colleges have affiliations with proper universities such that if you're not a complete dud for the two years you spend there (place in the top 40% or somesuch) you can transfer your credits and do the last two years at a proper university. I've known several people who have done this successfully.
- timwiseman 17y agoMy wife is one of them. For financial and geographic reasons, she started at a community college then transferred to a proper university after finishing there. She had to retake one course that wouldn't transfer and a couple of classes at the community college became electives when they transferred over, but for the most part she saved a lot of money that way.
