There's an underlying assumption here that there are opportunities to be missed. She's already mostly through HS; this isn't like some isolated homeschooled situation. If you're 16, have an obvious lucrative career path right in front of you, you would be an idiot to spend hours writing AP History reports or whatever, especially if your interest in that topic is low.

And she's missing the best parts of those last two years - the large number of AP/IB courses offered at most American high schools. And really, I'm not sure why anybody would be in such a rush to get a job. Money isn't everything.
