Ged Social Studies
Q. I had forgotten about the age difference between UK and US students. In the US a child graduates with a high school diploma at 18? Whilst in the UK my daughter will have optained her GCSE's by 16. Maybe the 2 years would help prepare her for the US higher education system. Which poses an interesting problem. Should she attend high school for 2 years; Would she be legally required to attend high school at 16. Can she go straight in to College at 16?, of course she would then be in a clas of students older than her...
A. Another option is to take the GED. I cannot remember what GED stands for but it is the high school diploma equivalency exam. From what I have heard it is ridiculously easy to pass. She could go straight to college at age 16 if she passes the GED. I don't think I would recommend that. Two years in that age range is a big difference -- she would really be a lot younger than everyone else in college. I was friends in high school with a girl who was two years younger than the rest of us -- she graduated high school at age 16. I think she had quite a difficult time in school -- not academically but in terms of social development. I think if it were my daughter I would have her go to high school here -- to get used to American culture if nothing else. If she is academically inclined or just finds herself more advanced in knowledge due to her UK education, she can take honors and/or AP classes as a previous poster suggested which will hopefully keep her interested. Also, I think American high schools place a greater emphasis on teamwork/group projects and that may be interesting for her as well. I went through the American high school system and I did take a number of AP courses along with the exams. I went into college with nearly a year's worth of college credits as a result. This enabled me to graduate in 3 years instead of 4 years, saving a year of college tuition money.
