Dont be a fool....stay in school !!

Yea, best thing to do is stay in school. You can read dozens of posts and situations similar to yours and everyone will say the same thing (Stay in school).

I am 17, and last year I was planning on taking that same route, dropping out of HS at 10-11, and taking 12 through Correspondence. But instead I will be graduating this fall because I chose to increase my course loads instead of dropping out of High School. This way I can still apply for regs at an early age, and have my HS done if somethings goes wrong.

Best luck whatever you choose to do,
Regards,
Pat

Edited* I'm not sure how the education system in Quebec works, but its something too look into.

If you've been hyped up about joining infintary-army since the age of tweleve like I have you probabley should still go for grade 12 like I am. I am going to keep my body in shape. Also I AM going to increase my work load also, so i can get the  FRIG OUTTA HERE, and start going around the world, fighting, getting that addrenline rush!!!! Is that what infintary's like?

People like you and FutureMilitary need to stay in school. That pesky English language ain't gonna learn itself.

Good plan? No. Get school out of the way; then apply.

It really doesnt matter what career you are undertaking, be it civilian or military. High School is simply a must have nowadays. To be blunt, you would be an absolute fool to drop out of High School.

I stuck it out, and I hated it just as much as the next guy. My grades werent the best, but I eventually graduated nonetheless. If you cant even do that, whats to say you can handle the military (believe it or not, theres books, timings and even longer days than school).

Show some tenacity, suck it up and do it.

 

[SHELLDRAKE!!]

Funny thing is, I graduated high school and after 16 years in the CF, sometimes I wish I could go back to high school when life was simple.

Think down the road if you want to go UTP or CFR (programs for becoming and officer), or do more education on your own. You will find that there are a lot of roadblocks to continued education if you dont have your High School done, meaning you have to go back to college or through the forces to get your Gr.12 equivalent (usually called a GED). If you join up and then leave the CF later, for whatever reason, you will find that most employers will expect a minimum of grade 12 education plus experience.  Its a lot easier to get it done now while you are young.
