How can I graduate earlier?

Question

So sophmore year (last year) was sucky for me. I failed chemestry. But I want to graduate so bad. I can't stand to live here anymore. And I know Im smart and if I want something bad enough, I'll do anything i can to get it. If I finish everything this year on my schedual (which i will with flying colors) i will only have three credits left "for senior year": english, history, physics. Which I heard I could take english online and then I don't know. I want to go to college that I would have a good chance of getting into because it accepts %75 percent of its applicants. Lol. But I want to go because the major I will do is really good there. But 1) I don't know what to do How to put this action into the works. or 2) How to convince my parents since I started school early and now I want to graduate early too? I know I sound crazy and you will probably be like, too bad. It ain't gonna happen. It WILL HAPPEN. I will make sure of it. So can you at least give me some advice?

Answer 1

Depending on the size of your school and location of a community college, but you should be able to apply for Running Start.  You are eligible starting your Junior Year.  

Running Start is a program that allows students to start getting their AA in college before they graduate high school completely.  Basically this means, you take your last two years of high school at the local community college or even university.  You'll get high school and college credit at the same time.  It looks great on your college application too.  You'll have to get more info from your school.

Answer 2

Is it too late to start summer school this year?  If there's a second session, one that hasn't begun, you could take one of those three classes this summer--whichever one you expect to be hardest--and get it out ouf the way.  Then NEXT summer, after your junior year, you can take the other two and graduate at the end of the summer.  If the college of your  choice knows what you're doing, it will probably conditionally admit you, so that you can go right into college next September.
