I went to college early (14, graduated 18). I&#x27;ve spoken with a lot of similar folks over the years, and the biggest takeaway for me was that everyone&#x27;s experience and needs were different.<p>Some people were pushed by their parents, but mostly it was people who were bored with the normal experience and found an out. Out of that set, maybe about half regret it, and wished they had slowed down and enjoyed high school&#x2F;childhood more.<p>People tend to assume that folks who go to college early would be socially awkward, but that was not my experience. The social&#x2F;emotional intelligence distribution was pretty normal.<p>Out of everything, the common denominator was supportive parents.
