For most schools that's impossible unless you get extra credits from summer school.

I agree with Kuru. I just graduated college and it was an awesome time, even though I went to Nerd U. There is no need to rush it. Having a couple of years of high school that will be no effort is like a gift. Take that gift and love it. Have fun with little to no consequence on your school work. I would have loved it. Then, when you get to college, you are in the same boat as the other freshmen. You're 18 years old, you don't know shit about shit, and pull up your pants!

Well, after my experiences, I can say I disagree with you too. Take the opportunity to do something fun: tech crew for theatre, start up a geek club, speech/debate, etc. There are other things to do than homework. I don't think I really did much of any homework in my last 2 years of high school. I was doing band, tech crew, speech, rollerblading, etc. I had things to fill my time that were fun, not homework. Trust me. When you get to college, things will move fast enough for you. It certainly did for me.

I don't get involved in extracarricular(sp?) school stuff because it leaves me very bored and eats time I normally spend doing other things.

good luck dude, but judging from what i've seen of people who started college earlier than they chronologically should, they're not usually treated well. also, if you're currently failing or nearly failing your accelerated and honors courses for lack of studying, you've got to face the reality that you probably will not do too well in college either. 99\% of the reason i had a tough time with college was lack of general study habits and/or study skills. i never did homework or stuidied in high school, i aced the classes, and then i got to college where the work was actually hard and i was fucked. if i were suddenly 14 again, knowing what i do now, i'd have at least attempted to study just so that when i got to college and it all really counted, i wouldn't be tryin to learn it all at once. good luck dude, but i do think you're crazy. it's hard to explain to someone who hasn't already been hit with the reality of the adult world that they should enjoy being young and having no responsibilities while they can. ------------------ kuru 'put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour.
