    Worst. Idea. Ever

    Yes, French and Religion isn't useful, but it's what happens when your parents force into it.

    Just finish it. Just think of it this way, only 2 more years
    Out Now!

        i would say just stick it out. i slacked off the majority of senior care because i really didnt care and i still managed to pass and graduate fine. you really dont have much more to go. but if you do drop out yeah get a GED or the Canada equivalent.
        12th grade is the highest.

        And yes, I did think it through before posting, I want to know others opinions about this decision. I've been thinking about dropping out for quite a while now.

        Yea, I am thinking about the fact that I only have two more years, but... I can't stand it much longer, I'm a very impatient man. Also, no, I do not have my drivers license yet, I'm getting my G1's this week.

          And how far does your plan go?

            Cheat your way through the next two years. That way you can do what you want when you're out of school and not have to worry about actually trying or anything to graduate and get your high school diploma. I mean, even if you go into metal trades and such having a high school diploma helps. What if you get injured doing what it is your doing? it might prevent you from that kind of work, and you would then need almost at least a college degree to get a job anywhere. Get your high school diploma now and it'll be that much easier if you ever need your college diploma in the future.

            I haven't dropped out of school so I can't tell you what it's like, but I do doubt that you'll look back without regret in the future.

              I can't even think of anything witty to say this because it's just that stupid.

              It's such a shame that you can't sit around all day and listen to your iPod and play rhythm games, isn't it?

              Have fun making ornaments or railings or whatever the ****.

                I don't plan on going to college, if I do it'll be for something like working in the music industry.

                Btw, I also been wanting drums for a long time and me and my friend want to start a band, he plays guitar, I know this sounds really dumb, but I love music so much that I want to make a living in it.

                  I think you should at least stay in school until you graduate grade 12. In those years, you will get to learn some more skills, and you should actually listen, and learn these skills, so it can help you make your decision to see what you would want to be when you graduate. I mean, I'm not an expert, seeing as I'm only in 9th grade, but by grade 12, you don't necessarily have to know what you want to be. You just have to find out. Try different activities at school, volunteer for different programs. See what you like when you get to try some of these things, and see what you don't like. This will help you in seeing what you excel at, so you can see what you might want to make a career out of. Dude, like I said, I'm no expert, but you might want to consider what I've said: stay in the remaining years, listen and learn, see what you are better or worse at, see if it helps you choose. I'm not saying this will make you choose, but it might help you, even if just a little bit, dude. You should want to graduate, because you will have many more options with a diploma, more experience to have a wider range of job opportunities, and more. So graduate, and then you can see what you want to be.

                    Oh I just remembered, isn't it illegal to drop out of school before the age of 18 in Canada?

                        I don't play FFR all day, if I did drop out of school I'd still never play FFR or lisin' to my iPod all day.

                        Btw, I do have fun making railings... I enjoy welding, and it pays a lot.

                            Only person with a legit reason to drop out of high school is Bill Gates. Otherwise, you'd be ****ed if you live in society with no high school diploma, even.

                                But or how will the pay last? With the dollar weakening, I dunno if they high pay will be high enough will last awhile.
