I mean, I dropped out with enough credits to still graduate... I still don't know if it worked out for me though. I was getting into a lot of fights, so it was decided it was better for me to not be in high school and just start applying for colleges or work. Personally, I think it kinda isolated me and made it more difficult for me to fit in with those around me. That being said, after Junior year, school teaches you less and less about life, and more about very specific skills that are only applicable to very specific fields. This is mostly a problem with modern school systems. Not sure what country you live in, but there have been efforts to amend this, and if your school is forward thinking enough, it may just be better to graduate.

Finally, if you're not sure what you're going to do in life, stay in school. It gives you more time to consider where you're going. If you already have a job, and a career path outside of school, I'd recommend at least talking about this with your instructors and counselors.

Most of the kids that go to school in my school system (dcps) don't graduate. This is because either they get pregnant or they don't see a reason to stay in school. Most of the neighborhoods around the city are filled with minimum wage workers with too many kids who have nothing to do all day, so do drugs and make bad decisions.

Tbh you should stay in school, it's probably for the best.

depends on the situation. i dropped out when i was 17, 3 months from graduation, cause i couldnt handle it anymore. was in a terrible relationship, depression was going untreated, and going to school was leading me further and further down a i road i wouldnt have come back from. luckily, my mom suggested i drop out. high school isnt for everyone, and obviously the people in here saying ur gonna be a burger flipper are down right morons, everyone has their pace and speed they need to take life. some people excel in regular academics, others dont. i took a year off and worked on my life, helped around the house, learned some valuable life lessons before i went back and got my high school diploma through a independent studies program.

i cant really tell anyone to stay in school, or drop out, its entirely subjective. high school isnt as serious as anyone makes it out to be, and youre not gonna be some loser or nobody because you didnt go through high school. it took me a long time to realize that fact. im working now, in a stable relationship, and doing shit that i love daily. you gotta find a happy medium in your life, and if high school is a detriment to that, consider alternatives

i think it could. I'm a line cook at a nice french restaurant. I love the work, and it requires no education whatsoever to do. I could see myself cooking in 40 years

if youre doing it for a job that you /think/ you'll keep in 40 years, stay the fuck in school. dont be a dummy and put all your eggs in one basket, my example is if high school is physically/mentally debilitating for you, not if u got some job u think is poppin

that's great dude,
but still not good enough a reason to just quit school.
what's your argument to quit - you don't feel like it? lol

unless you got some kind of once-in-a-lifetime offer to work at the best restaurant in the world, just finish school and then pursue your career in cooking.

Do it. You can always get a GED.

I'm assuming you're not going to college. So it'll probably matter very little to none for your future career endeavors.

GED is always an option, but depending on how bad your situation is/how close you are to finish high school it might be more or less effort than just sticking through it. If you enjoy cooking, you could look into culinary school, but those all require HS diploma or GED, so it'll be one or the other.

Don't make any hasty decisions, and make sure you discuss (with parents and academic advisors) and explore all options available to you before committing to something.

I am a completely different person since when I graduated high school, and that was only 2 years ago. Give yourself options. Enjoy your line cook job and finish up school at the same time.

Also all culinary schools want you to have graduated high school, so if you ever want to do that, you'll be happy you have a diploma.

e: "almost most" isnt a phrase that means anything

even if you drop out you're still probably not going to be able to work full time until you're past the age of graduation. A lot of states don't consider you an adult until you're 19 or have a diploma

in the grand scheme of things finishing high school shouldn't take that much time or effort, and it open a lot of doors for you if you change your mind about working as a cook for 40 years

You're classified as a literal idiot for dropping out of high school. And you won't be liking that same job under new management when that inevitably comes to happen I guarantee it.
