School advice

[Dakotah]

As yall know I am homeschooled and I was suppose to get my school stuff back in late August/early Sept. But my dad never ordered it b/c his idenity got stolen from his business credit card which is what he orders all of my school stuff with.
Well he gets his new card one week from this Wednesday. But I am already 2 months behind counting one month from last year.
I am a senior in high school now and my plan was to graduate in May 09... well now I don't know if I can.
I am only taking a max. of 5 classes; 12th grade Lit., Economics (I have already taken 6 history classes since 9th grade, explains why I love history so much, huh? LOL), forgien language (Italian), Geometry and a half a credit of either Cal. or Algebra 3.
So what do you Chazzers thank I should do as far as me being able to graduate when I want to?

Guess you have to go by the home schooling rules which I know nothing . Don't you have to take SATS ??

 

[Dakotah]

I am taking the SATs in Oct/Nov and then again sometime between Feb. and April if I don't like my score on the first SATs.
But the homeschoolers will let me keep my school work til August but I don't want it that long b/c I plan on going to college in the fall but if that don't work out I will start winter quarter or spring semester.

6-day weeks

I'm not exactly sure how homeschooling works, but if you are only taking 5 classes it seems that you should be able to finish by May.

My SIL homeschools her son (I think he is 13) and he can do in 4 hours what a regular school would do in 8. So I would say if you spend the full school day on it as you would if you went to public school you should be able to get done by May.

You just have to have the motivation and the drive to do it. But you definitely could still finish with school by May.

Thanks yall.
I would do 6-day weeks but I am almost always gone on Sats and Suns, but if I'm not I work.
When I had 7 classes last year I did 5-6 hours everyday but I also took alot of vacation time b/c my mom (long story, but she was horrible last year about me visiting. ).
I am not gonna take long vacas this year or any extra time off that I don't need.

Hopefully I'll still be able to graduate in May.

Can you work into July to make up the two months? Or perhaps do longer hours than you were going to? Or a combination of both, longer hours and working through June?

 

[Dakotah]

I will probably work longer hours and work through May/June.
If I HAVE to I will start college in the spring.

But if I need some math help yall smarties gotta help me. LOL
