Yeah its easy to graduate with correspondance early. I graded when I was just turning 16 and now Im almost done college because I went to college right away. Other people I know are still doing their correspondance because they never found time too do it.

How come you get to graduate early through correspondance? I'm so used to the idea of graduating at age 18 but I guess that is if you are in regular school like me.

Yeah I did correspondance, I worked too fast in class and always had to wait weeks for the rest of the class to catch up so they put me in correspondance.
Its tottally up to you if you grad early. If you slack off and don't do the work you may not grad until the normal time or later then that. If you do the work quickly and are dedicated to getting it done you can graduate as soon as you are finished. You also don't go with the pace of a classroom, usually the teacher trys to keep everyone on the same level but some people learn quicker or learn slower so those people can do correspondance if they wish and work at their own pace. Its the same as normal school your just not in a class room. I did 2 years of school in 13 months. I also got to skip grade 10 tho.

Oh, I get it. I remember my friend complaining that there was no advanced math because she was bored with what we were doing-and she's definitely ahead of everyone when it comes to math. So, correspondence could have been an option. How does it work? I mean I heard of video correspondence, but are they other ways?

Well correspondence is not like home schooling your parents don't teach you you pretty much teach your self if you have questions you can ask your parents but they usually cant say them. If there is something you absolutely don t get you can send a letter in the mail asking the question but it takes for ever to get there and back It also helps you take responsibility and do things on your own because your parents aren't always going to be there to help you. If you want to challenge yourself and want harder work you can pick harder stuff as your elective.. you have 13 required books and 3 point electives.
