I began high school math courses in 5th grade, and continued to earn other credits in middle school. At the end of my second (sophomore) year of high school, I realized that I had sufficient credit to graduate by the end of my third year of high school as long as I completed specific required courses. I planned to continue with Dual Enrollment through the normal Dual Enrollment deadline, but a Georgia law changed the restrictions on Dual Enrollment meaning less than one more year of classes would be funded, so I decided to graduate early instead of continuing with AP classes or unfunded Dual Enrollment.
