<p>If you are a 3-year graduate with an average gpa, do you benefit into getting into a good college? I’m a freshman in high school so I’m considering graduating early.</p>
<p>Usually not. If you started taking legit high school classes in 7th or 8th grade and have actually taken all the AP’s and advanced electives available from your school by junior year, have great EC’s, and, most importantly, can prove you’re as mature as any senior, you have as good of a chance as anyone else with the same GPA and SAT’s. However, if you just take a bunch of classes starting freshman and have enough credits to graduate by 11th grade but haven’t really excelled academically (read: haven’t earned an outstanding GPA) or extracurricularly, you’d actually be a less attractive candidate to most colleges.</p>
