do you know if one computer course is mandatory for math/;science or can I just do math and science? I was planning to take Intro to Computing and Nutrition as a TECEP, but now that you mention that Astronomy was simple, I think I may wanbt to go that route. I did always have some interest in Astronomy so I would like to study that and I am really wanting to do the Nutrition TECEP as well. I took out the Soviet Collosus book from my library and started that as well.

One thing, Intro to Sociology is a social science course so you can put that in your general ed social science course and then you can take any general ed elective instead of a social science one (environment and humanity comes to mind).

Well, I certainly didn't mean to derail your plans! I don't know if the college math would meet the computer science requirement. I only took Astronomy because I had to have the natural science credits. I was lucky that my version of the test somewhat overlapped with some of the western civ study I'd done. Intro to Computing wasn't difficult either; I only studied for a week for that one. 'Course, I don't remember
any of it now, but I have the credits!

Now that you've made it a competition I'll perform better than ever! :coolgleam: Just try to catch me. :reddevil:
Actually, you're already beating me, aren't you? I'll probably be 21 before I get my degree; didn't you say you'll be 19?

Very good point. Was Environment and Humanity easy? I seem to remember reading that it was. At any rate, it would probably be better than studying psychology. Thanks!

True, true. But you can hardly blame me for that. GAME ON.

I haven't taken psychology so I don't really know. I do know that Environment and Humanity was very do-able after going through the the IC flaschards a few times.

Blame? Who said anything about blaming? I was more congratulating you; I wish I'd started in high school or right out of it.
Just IC? That's what I wanted to hear!

Yeah, I know what you were saying but I was just saying we could still race
And I had 21 units by the time I had graduated high school.
Well, I had some background experience from debating about the environment my senior year but I also aced the test. Odds are you can get away with just IC.

Best case scenario, a few months. Worst case scenario, half a year.

Okay yeah, PonyGirl93 looks to be beating me on age but perhaps not graduation-date (December if I'm lucky).
Laura, when's your graduation goal?
Heh, now I'm checking my schedule to see if I can bump up when I take my next test
