The typical TJ grad is taking college courses in their freshman year. There was a story in the WaPo last year of a young man who graduated from TJ with enough credits he was able to graduate in a year from UVA. Granted, he took a whole lot of credits while at UVA and that did include 2 semesters and a summer, but that was pretty impressive. IIRC he majored in math and minored or double majored in a science.

My own child will graduate from her high school with enough credits to be be a 2nd semester sophomore when she walks onto campus. Good deal - saves me money! :)

Doesn’t save you money at colleges where they have a MINIMUM hour requirement at a college level institution. All you end up doing is qualifying your kid to take the higher level stuff sooner.
