That math doesn't add up. Junior year is 16-17, a 4 year degree ends at 20-21, so this person would still be a year too young since her age is listed as 19, having graduated 5 months ago. Also, the fact that this person was some sort of star student who qualified for early college was never mentioned, which it certainly would have been. The institution whuch awarded her nursing "degree" is never mentioned. This person was almost certainly larping as a "street medic" b/c she took a cpr or first aid class for a semester in HS.

Junior year isn't necessarily based on age though. They could have junior class standing and be younger. They also could have been enrolled full time through summers and graduated early. The point is moot either way. Like previous comments have said I don't see someone academically motivated or gifted working at a grocery store after graduating with a nursing degree. Its also possible they went through CNA training which is significantly shorter but again it doesn't make sense for them to be working at a grocery store when CNAs make more money. You bring up a valid point they very well could be someone with first aid/ cpr training pretending they have greater knowledge than they actually do. A lot of trans people seem to have an ego so it wouldn't surprise me.

Edit: typos

Also, when your entire identity is based on a lie, lying about all sorts of other things becomes second nature. As the sexologists who've worked closely with the trans population pointed out many years ago, whilst as Dr House says "everybody lies," people who ID as the opposite sex tend to lie a whole lot more than the rest of us - many are pathological liars and fabricators.

Or to put a kinder spin on it, they are full-time fabulists.

You can graduate with an undergrad degree at 19. A lot of people in the area start school a year ahead for some reason. Most of the people who did that program were young for their grade.
