What sort of actual nursing program can you graduate at 19 ? I'm smelling some serious bullshit. Unless this person was some sort of grade skipper and graduated HS early; even then there's no way this can be true b/c those kids get snapped up by colleges, especially once you start ticking off diversity boxes such as female, trans, hispanic. This person would have walked into any number of schools, probably with scholarship money. Journalism, 2020.

There is a program in their region that allows high school students to enter college if they have junior standing and a high enough GPA. They likely finished their AA around 17 and then completed a 4 year degree at 19.

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.

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.
