I've done High School. I've been offered a Job at a really cool Startup. I've join as the 3rd employee and we are now more than 120 people.
I'm now a Firmware designer for 1year and I'm 18 yrs old. I make good money and I have a lot of Options (beaty of startup:).
I've learn programming by myself (Thanks to Linux and the open source community) wich I believe is better than any teaching a school could give me because I had to do it the hard way.
My point is, if you can join a Startup and have a chance of making it to IPO hell it worth it because I could be retired at 20 yrs old hehe:)
If it doesn't work out, well the hell with it I'll either go back to school or start my own.com
It doesn't work for everyone. You need to love learning by yourself and maybe you need to hate school after all:)
Do your own decision and live with it. That's my quote.
