How is that even possible?
Honestly, you wouldn't even pass the GED... the GED has 11th-12th year type of questions. Not hard... but you've missed THREE years of school.
You'd have to study pretty hard to pass it.

Just study like a mad man and take the test. You will probably be better educated than most because frankly high school is s%@#$. You will end up keeping more information than most if you really apply yourself to learning/studying/passing the test. Most people forget most of the garbage they learned in high school soon after they graduate. College is what matters.

They don't look at your diploma or GED. Any moron can get a diploma.
They look at your SAT scores.
They look at your SAT scores.
What happens, IN HER MIND, is that she comes to see you as WORTHLESS simply because she hasn't had to INVEST anything in you in order to get you or to keep you.
You were an interesting diversion while she had nothing else to do. But now that someone a little more valuable has come along, someone who expects her to treat him very well, she'll have no problem at all dropping you or demoting you to lowly "friendship" status.

Wtbfail, let me tell you my story.
I basically stopped going to school in 7th grade too.
When I turned 16 (min. age) I bought some GED study books, studied, and took the GED.
I then took a semester at a community college because I needed the credits to join the Marine Corps.
When I left the Marine Corps (4 years later) I returned to a community college
and worked toward a transfer degree (pre-engineering) to go to a university.
I worked hard and ensured I got excellent grades.
That right there opened up every door I needed.
Now I am about to finish my BS in electrical engineering at the very top of my class.
I am going to be able to apply, and most likely be accepted, to any grad school I choose due to my near perfect college performance. I already work as an engineer and make more money (hourly) than almost everybody I know.
I've had a lot of people look down on me and talk trash, thinking their HS diploma means something.
I'm more successful (both academically and financially) than all of them and have only just begun.
So just keep that in mind. It all boils down to how hard you're willing to work.
