That's always a good idea.  I took a lot of my college corses in High school, and as such, saved a lot of money.

Lay now forevermore slender;
And all winds that liven
Silhouette a lone existence;
A leafless oak grasping at eternity.

I had 18 credits that transfered.  It's nice being allowed a bunch of the core curriculum classes.

I took one my sophomore year, two my junior year and two my senior year.  I took all of the college courses my school offered (without taking any online, anyway).

I took 1 freshman, 1 sophmore, 3 junior, and 3 senior. Only like 2 of them will actually help me in college though (credit wise.)

Lol, I had like 20 credits that were transfered, and it has helped me a bunch!  I don't have to take a bunch of stupid classes, but instead I can go straight into interesting courses. ^^

I took too many credits this semester.  I took an extra course at the start of term (a 2 day 2 credit course), but for whatever reason, they are having issues giving the 2 credits to people who took more than 20 credit hours this semester.  Arg!

It was required because I was in the International Baccalaureate program.

Credit hours are a pretty bad measure of how much work you actually have to do...

The one perk of going to a crappy, poor school.

Well they aren't called just 'credits' (that's something else entirely), even though that's what everyone calls them.  Anyway, I know it is, as my schedule is 25 hours of class plus tutoring, even though I only have 20.5 registered "credit hours".  So eh?  And that's not including my commuting and all my extra work and homework, as well as my chem review classes.
