OK, so a lot of people have a recurring dream where you have to go back to high school because you missed a graduation requirement, even though you’re a grown-ass adult. But I’m curious if anyone knows what would actually happen in this scenario. Would they wave it off, or would you need to take a college class, or get your GED (or equivalent)? Any educators out there to enlighten us?

    I don’t see why. I’m employed. My employer cared that I had a college degree ten years ago, but now I have years of doing the job to point to.

    So my high school diploma would have to be pulled, then two colleges would somehow have to say that made my two diplomas invalid, then my employer would have to decide they gave a shit about that more than nearly a decade of demonstrated competency.

    At most, I would take a GED test for shits and giggles. I would guess math is the most difficult section for most people. I’m an engineer and use math more and more diverse applications for math frequently, so I expect it would be easy.
