Impressive! After Calc BC (or its equivalent of Calc 1 and 2), there's Calc 3 (also known as Multivariable Calculus, what I'm currently in), Linear Algebra, Differential Equations (which we're touching on right now in Multi), and a LOT more. But that's about what you can realistically get to in high school. Stats should also be taken somewhere in there.

I'm taking AP stats senior year after Calc BC, assuming I survive.

I'm so sick of English right now. Have part of a term paper due on Thursday. Don't want to do it, but have to. Don't have energy to speak in complete sentences anymore.

How do you graduate early (I want to graduate early to have more time for college when I am in college)?

For Texas, (KatyISD, but others may work the same), you just have to get all 26 credits needed in 3 years. Of course, that requires taking summer school and getting at least 2-3 credits in 8th grade, taking World Geo in summer school after 8th, and then just cramming everything in during the school years and summer.

For us, AP Stats is after AP Calc, or one could also take Special Topics (engineering stuff)

Over here, we're not allowed to grad early, which is a shame because all of my good friends are a year older than me, so I think I'm probably headed off to either Europe or Australia senior year for foreign exchange

Why would you want to grad early though? Either way, you're only in college for 4 years...

You could totally be in college for less, or more. and call me officially envious. I've been denied 2 opportunities to go to Germany within the last year

Ehhhh, my high school's kinda boring. I just wanna get it over with. Besides, i'm not allowed to go to Prom, homecoming, etc, so no point in needing a senior year.

>.< My mom is encouraging me to go to prom et al. to get the "full high school experience".

Yes, and that experience does not include Apples to Apples.
