[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Almost everybody who graduates college early was on track to graduate early the moment they graduated high school. These days, it's not unusual to graduate high school with a year or 2 of college credits under one's belt. If you start college on track to graduate in 3 years or less, then you're not compressing anything by graduating in 3 years. The only instance I would consider graduating in 3 years to be rushing is if you entered college with less then a semester's worth of AP credits, but I don't that's terribly common. I greatly overwhelmed myself by graduating in college in 3.5 years, but that's because I only entered with 6 AP credits. I should've taken the full 4 years.[/quote]

If you think about it, the kid who was redshirted in kindergarten and graduated in 3 years with a bunch of AP credits is learning the same material at the same age as his father who was not redshirted and graduated in 4. [/quote]

I'd still say most redshirted kids graduate college in 3.5 years, not 3 years flat.[/quote]

No, they don't.  Stop making stuff up.  Or, they take extra summer and AP classes to make up for the fact that their parents screwed them over and didn't think highly of them so they held them back in school.[/quote]
