Ah, I see now! Thanks, Krishach. LadyBlue, I hope you do well! You must be very smart in order to even qualify for that. [img]smile.gif[/img] Back when I was in high school, it was called "Honors" program. I had to sit for the PSAT/NMSQT back then (National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test). That wasn't half difficult, I'll tell you! I understand what you're going through.

As Cyril says, getting those silly "core" courses out of the way can give you a great deal more leeway in planning your college curriculum. Using CLEP exams can help, but getting as much out of the way as you can while still in high school is the best way to go. Best of luck to you!
