I'm bringing something up that is somewhat irrelevant to me at the moment (as my kids are pretty young), but I just wanted to get people's input since I'm very new to the HS'ing world still
I was looking into taking CLEPs for myself, and I happened to stumble across a forum, accidentally, about homeschooling. Of course I was intrigued, and I learned that many HS parents will incorporate CLEPs during the high school years in order to get college credits (they are learning the material anyways, why not take the exam and get the credit, right?). I understand that "dual enrollment" is not accepted in many cases, but it seems easy enough to study, say, Biology, mark it on the child's transcript with any associated grade, and have the CLEP exam separate.
The forum I was on was biased in the sense that it was a pro-CLEP forum (not knocking that, just stating I didn't hear any negative opinions), and I got very excited about this. However, I just wanted to see if anyone has any experience with this or had any opinions about having their teens earning so many college credits at such a young age, and even in some rare cases, getting their bachelor's around the same time an average PS kid would graduate high school. I wish I would have known as a high schooler to take CLEP exams, since I probably could be avoiding taking basic college classes such as history later in life.
