is it possible that i could just take my placement test now or just go ahead and wait til october and take it...i'm going to contact my high school about it but i wanted to see what others could say or know about this..!

Answer 1

What are you doing that you "haven't finished all of my home schooling"? Did your mom purchase a program? Are you doing an online program?

Regardless, you certainly don't have to wait until October to do the placement test; that just makes no sense. Just because you started last October doesn't mean you have to wait until this October--you are not obligated to homeschool for an entire year. Do as much work as you can from now until you start school--all of your English and math for sure. Consider forgetting the rest; you don't need to finish it. That's what placement tests are for--they don't care whether you've finished whatever it was that you were doing or not, they just want to know what to do with you now.

Answer 2

You might want to check with a high school counselor and see what will be best FOR YOU.
