But, I'm still in school - I'm a senior, but I'm not going to pass. I'm failing all my classes, and I have alot going on at home and such, I can't really take all the pressure and stress. So I figured I'd drop out and get my GED - do you think I could still be successful?
Dog Training - Avoiding Common Training Mistakes
Recommended Answer:
I've heard of successful people that had no HS diploma and went on and worked hard and became successful. If your a senior just stay in school and ask your guidance counselor that you need help and want to bring your grades up. Some drop out, intending to get their GED and never do. And despite what everyone thinks, getting your GED isn't a piece of cake! At school you get everything during a set of courses per semester per year. When you take the GED, you get everything thrown at you at once, and not to mention the time limits on the testing parts.
My cousin dropped out of high school when she was 15 and didn't get her GED until she was almost 30(she had kids so it was hard for her to get at it and achieve the GED).
You can still be successful with a GED though. You can still become a dog trainer if you really want it and go after it. I don't know how old you have to be to take the GED where you are at but here you have to be at least 16.
A GED is the same as a High school diploma, the only difference is that the person with the HS diploma stuck out for 4 years while the GED they may have gotten dropped and got their diploma before their graduating class or got it after their graduating class.
Choosing Between Dog Training Schools and Animal Behavior Specialists
- Some employers don't care; others look at a GED and see "quitter."
If you couldn't handle high school, how are you going to handle Real Life? You don't get a do-over in the real world when your personal life goes to hell; you're expected to keep on keeping on.
It's only October. You've got seven months left of the school year. Don't just piss it away and whine that it was too hard. If home is a hard place to do your studying, do it at the library or at school (take the late bus home). You can talk to your school counselor about the stuff that's making you crazy, but it's your job to do your school work and pass your classes. - Sure, why not?
I dropped out and got my GED with no problem- We had family issues too, including a death in the family, but...
Im now a Dog Groomer and I have a promising career in that as well as Dog Handling now. :) Its who you know, not what you know, because the Dog world is very politcal. - yes, if you put your mind to it, you could get your GED. you could also drop out of your school and sign up for online school which allows you to work at your own pace (expensive, but works) it is up to you
if you are interested in online school, i used keystonehighschool.com - YES! You can definitely still do really well.
Good luck! - Successful? Yes, maybe...As successful? No. Not at all, talk to your teachers find out if there is any way you can do extra credit and things to bring your grades up to passing, giving up is never the answer and you will not make as much as money as you could with your diploma. Didn't the school year just start not too long ago? You should have plenty of time to bring your grades up.
Are you going to drop out of college if you start failing? Try to finish high school, you're almost done no sense in throwing it all away.
add: WOW really? No one is going to tell this person to stay in school? Dropping out as a senior or at any grade for that matter is one of the most ignorant things you could do.
