Mine was last year when I was in the seventh grade. I realized that if I want to be successful when I'm older I need to do good in school. In sixth grade I got E's, D's and, C's. In seventh grade I got A's and B's. This year in eighth grade I hope to get straight A's. Then Go to college in ninth grade.


LOL let me know how that theory works out for you.

E's? They give those?

At my school E's are equivalent to F's.

Except he brought the damn thing back. Why would he do that? To the victim's house no less. Redonkulous.


Yeah, I asked that very question over and over. I was told

"You ain't from round these parts are ya boy?"
"Shut up"
Oh, and the intelligent one told me (You'll love this)
"You got scared, and brought it back"

They didn't want to have to do their job. They wanted a case to close.

Thank you for trying to believe me. But some crazy coders don't realize they have to take ALL the variables into the equation. They want you to tell them e=mc2 so they can put cout<< in front of it and yell what a great coder they are. They don't realize that in life you also have variables. They're to busy trying to sound intelligent, and tell everyone what is wrong with everyone else. Maybe that's why we have crazy coders to begin with. To let you know you're normal, not a self serving, egotistical, know it all, brainless piece of shit.
Who knows... shrug ...It's possible!

EDIT:

After thought. For as stupid, and unintelligent as he makes himself sound. I actually wish he had been on my jury. I would have got off a lot easier. LOL

Why would you go to college in 9th grade? Dude, enjoy the easy life while you still have it! College is NOTHING like high school. Your grades will plummet as you're not quite mature enough yet. It takes more dedication and hard work to succeed in college than high school. Trust me, I would know. I epic failed going into college, but realized what I needed to do and brought my GPA back up by a whole point so far. You've got 10 weeks to do what would take you about 36 weeks in high school, and the professors just don't stop and help you individually. The massive amounts of work in such a short time would screw you over too. Just work hard in high school and enjoy the easy life while you still have it.

To take Math and ELA. My high school pays for all of the stuff you need for college while your attending the high school. I want to get all of my basic classes out of the way. I don't imagine it will be to hard to take those classes as I enjoy and do well in both my advance math and ELA classes.

Do it your senior year. I unfortunately did this my senior year. My GPA dropped from a 3.7 to a 3.2 by graduation. Of course I had brought my yearly average from a 1.6 to a whatever by that time anyways. Just remember: what you can get away with in high school WILL NOT get you anywhere in college.

NeoTifa, you do realize your experience does not represent the results for the masses right? I highly disagree and think he should take advantage as long as he can. High school GPA doesn't mean squat anyway. If he can get away with knocking out as many intro college courses towards his major (hopefully) and without paying, I say go for it.

What makes you think I'm not mature enough? I know that I do have some stupid post on this forum.

Because you're only in 9th grade. Just wait.... At least until junior or senior year.

Haha this part I have to agree with her. Kids will always want to believe they're more mature than they really are at that age. It's just a fact of life on that part.

Where did you go and did you go straight to CS KYA? I think it depends on the major. For the most part, it is harder than high school, but not hard by any means. Just a shit ton of work and labs (at least for my majors). For the record, I didn't start out as a CS major.
