I have quite school for two years ,now i have a good job
but i want to goback school and become a student again

if you are a student you wont think about some question about lives

Well as long as you live in the United States and are under the age of 18, you should have no problem re-entering a public school? By the way, how old are you because most students drop out of school when they are in high school. (I thought it was illegal to quit school as long as your under 18?...

anyone who quits school when they are TEN years old has some serious problems. I doubt anyone on this forum will be able to help someone in this case. Probably the best advice is to talk to some responsible adults who can provide some guidance.

[tab][/tab]School is where you learn to discipline yourself. A certain physicist never completed secondary school yet he became to be one of the most influential scientists of the 20th century. But he had a gift--he did not stop asking and nothing stopped him from finding the answer. The journey of a life is a constant learning process. If you feel that it's time to go back to school, don't let anything get in your way. Sure, you will be ridiculed even by your closest peers. But, if you give up in the middle of your attempt, it's better not have started in the first place.
[tab][/tab]As I was saying before, school not only teaches us knowledge but how to coexist with one another. It's a macro world where you learn to interact with others that are non-family members. It's the place to find out who you are and what you are made out of. And once you establish who you want to become (as a human being) you enter the final stage of learning; the university.
[tab][/tab]I want you to know, wasi, just because a person has graduated from an educational institution that does not make that person better than you. What it shows is that it took that person a good discipline to hold the ground and fought the good fight. Are you ready for your discipline? I have seen a homeless person recite Shakespeare better than a post-literature graduate. It's never too late! Go for it.

There is never any good reason to quit school. For one thing, you'll most likely never get a job higher than a position flipping burgers at McDonald's, especially if you quit in 5th grade. A GED (General Equivalency Diploma) is supposed to be about the same as a high school diploma, but there's nothing like the real thing. You'll have a much easier time getting into college if you graduate from an actual high school instead of just taking an "equal" test.

If you want to go back (which you really should), then you'll have to work really hard to catch up, but graduating late is still much better than not at all.

I can't really think of much else to prod you with, but you'll find a lot of benefits of finishing school if you Google something like "stay in school"

I beg to differ. I'm a highschool drop out. I had some VERY good reasons to do so. I'm assuming I'm not the only one to have my reasons. And I'm doing just fine with my life, even though I never actually 'graduated' where/when I was supposed to.

I went into correspondance courses... which were much different than school. The people there weren't helpful at all. The course work they gave me was so outdated, and photocopies of photocopies that half of the time were outdated.

But you know what? I stuck through it all. And I grew as a person. I grew up much faster than most of the people around me. I had no choice. So, I entered college a few years late. Not a big deal. I'm not the oldest in my class. There is one person ahead of me age-wise because she's onto her second degree.

As for me having a much easier time getting into college from going to and finishing high school. I don't think so. I got in perfectly fine, and am well adjusted to the course load and actually got myself a scholarship for being top in my course. Pretty good for a drop-out, eh?

Anyway, I think you are very courageous for wanting to finish your schooling, and I congratulate you on that. Wanting to go back is the first step. Obviously there are going to be some bumps along the way, but if you stick with it... you can do anything!

The best of luck to you and your studies

Quit school once you graduate from college. That's what I'm planning to do XD Once I get my 2 year degree... theres no good reason to drop out of school in high school. If you don't mind being a loser, that is. And expect to make money off the internet. People who drop out of school clearly don't care about their lives and think they have "better" buisness to do. Geez...

For the education, it's never too late for learning.. i share you, one of my brother who about 23, after drop out from 2th year of degree, just went for working and now he back track to study (now the age is about 30) ..of course study never be late for those who want to learn..
you know, i just came out from my country,my home,my family for "study"!!
life is the learning... go wasi

Midnightvamp, may I inquire as to your reasons? It seems like you did very well, but the vast majority of people who drop out don't.

Not so much , i can name 10 succesful drop-outs, starting with my father

( oh and i only know about 10 highschool dropouts )
