Just curious, how long ago did you drop out? How come you didn't finish High School?

Wow congradulations that is awesome. We are all very proud of u. It must feel really good to be all done with that.

Congrats! :cool:

I know some of my friends from out of state call it the "Good Enough Diploma" because you just get a GED certificate, while in Maryland when you pass the GED, you actually get a true high school diploma. What are the laws in your state?

Thanks everyone
Well the reason I dropped out was because my mom and I didn't get alone. To be more exact, we got into physical fights and during months of fighting I would get kicked out multiple times and I would stay with friends that lived far away from my school and they couldn't get me to and from school on time so I decided to drop out.

It was my 2nd month my senior year when I did it and I finally got my GED 10 months after I was supposed to graduate. Which was May of 2001

I am just glad that I finally got it and although I think it is a bunch of crock that you have to have a piece of paper to show how intelligent you are but I was not willing to give up so easy.

Here in MO when you pass the GED test you get a certificate that sys "Certificate Of High School Equivilance"

As of now my mom and I have workes things out and I live with her again dispute free and I am on the path to college and most people dont belive that I had dropped out only a year ago

That is exactly what happened to me. I didn't get along with my parents. We fought alot. I quit school I think 3rd month senior year. I was a year before you, I was supposed to graduate may of 2000. But I quit and moved out and didn't go back for my GED for about a year.

I definitely feel you on the whole "crock" thing. The peice of paper meant even less to me. I didn't even study for the test and past with flying colors. I was usually the 'brain' in class. Its too bad I wasn't smart enough to stay in school.

But anyways I know you are happy to put it behind you and move on. Congratulations and good luck with college.
