ANSWERS: 10
  • 3rd. I always wonder what life would have been like if I didn't.
  • Yes I was 2 grades ahead when I went into My High School, although it is worked differently in the UK. I was at what we call Public school which was Boarding. I think having to live amongst much older girls all the time made me more shy
  • Yes... i got skipped from 4th grade to sixth grade. it was really cool being that was soooo young, but that was in the dominican republic...when i came to New York, they put me back in the grade i wa supposed to be...those bastards...i could be a year or two ahead of my life...that suck but everything turned out good.
  • They sent me to second grade, a few months after I started first.
  • No I was actually held back in the 4th grade because I wasn't mature enough. I liked to screw around and play too many games. Somethings never change.
  • Yes, I got skipped from first to third grade. But then my parents moved, and they had me put back into second grade in my new school for "social reasons". Gah! Worst decision they ever made. Oh, and I'm snot sure if this counts, but I also "skipped" the 11th and 12th grades by getting enough Regents credits to graduate high school by the end of 10th grade.
  • Hey Sarita, long time, no see! Yes, I skipped 2nd grade. They didn't have advanced groups or gifted classes back in the early 70s, so they just skipped you a grade. In some ways, I'm glad I got to go ahead, because I was bored. But, it was hard in other ways. I hated always being the youngest or shortest in my class.
  • No. I was given the option to skip 3rd grade, but my parents wouldn't let me.
  • No, I was held back in first grade! Hahaha!!!
  • The school wanted to skip my son and daughter but they were both one of the youngest in their classes already I didnt think it was a good idea. So I told the school no. My son was pissed but he got over it.
