Today, I found out the high school I have been doing at home for the past 3 years isn't accredited and doesn't count for anything. I'm 18 and starting high school as a freshman next year. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I've lied about my grades for three years of high school already and my mom thinks I'm a straight A student. I'm supposed to be going to college in a year. FML
Today, I learned that the college I'm going to in the fall has been tampering with their ratings on the internet and actually only has a 5% graduation rate. Everything's already been paid for and I can't transfer elsewhere. FML
Today, I found out that my parents lied to me about my GPA so they could go back on our agreement of "3.0 or above or summer school" and had no intention of honoring the agreement anyway. I've been in summer school doing catch-up for kicks. FML
Today, I started my senior year of high school and I just learned I'm pregnant. I'm not sure how to tell my parents, considering I had a baby freshman, sophomore, and junior year as well. FML
Today, I got my report card, and thought I did pretty well with a GPA of 3.58. My parents freaked out over the 3 B's I had, and proceeded to look up which colleges would still accept me. I just finished my first quarter as a freshman in high school. FML
Today, after being kicked out of our school for leaving the country, neither of my guardians want to take charge of our education. So me, being sixteen, I have to do hundreds of assignments for my sister and me, who was already supposed to have graduated. Yay "Home schooling." FML
Today, I finally finished my summer assignments for three AP classes. My schedule also arrived. Turns out my school can't place me in any of them, and I just wasted the last four weeks of my summer. FML
Today, despite being in high school, I'm still shorter than the average 3rd grader. FML
Today, I found that my medical school has lost its WFME (World Federation for Medical Education) accreditation and my certificate (that I should be obtaining in two years) will be worthless. To pour salt into the wound, I have finals next week and it's hard to stay motivated after this kind of news. FML
Today, I went to my little brother's high school to speak to his counselor about his grades. On my way to the office, the office manager threatened to write me up for ditching class and told me that high school is not like middle school, 9th grade will be different. I graduated 5 years ago. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Some high schools don't allow students over 21. Good luck with that, and I mean it sincerely, cause that sucks.

This is a FYL for sure. If op started when they were 14, it would be their parents responsibility to check credentials. Sorry you have incompetent parents.

Holy ****. FAIL. FYL. I don't even want to repeat my last few weeks of my freshman year! I'd kill myself.

Or, you could just go to college. There are lots of crappy colleges/universities in Florida that happily take students without high school diplomas.

false.

Not false. My high school math teacher told us he was on probation his entire time in college because he had no high school diploma. So it's entirely possible. Depends on the school.

yeah it's not as easy to get into school in florida as some people think it is. Unless you wanna go to a community college. Which is better than nothing, i suppose. But honestly, i really do feel for you.

Most community colleges accept you without a diploma. Then you can just transfer to a 4-year school, which most will allow you to do if you keep decent grades, even if you don't have a diploma.

Yeah, just go to college. I went without having a diploma. I was homeschooled.

How do you not have a diploma? I was homeschooled through high school, and I had a graduation, which included other people, AND included a diploma. And yes, it was real, it was obtained through the state.

that sucks, but you should be able to fly through high school now, take courses online or something.

Okay, I had the same problem. What I did is I went to my new accredited schools guidance and explained my problem. I had to make a portfolio full of work I did over the past years, and then I wrote how I met each state framework/standard. :) I got full credit for each class I did (though it was a lot of work to write the standards/frameworks) and got out of school within a month.
