High School of Business
Not sure if this is relevant to the AF, but my school is one of about 40 in the country that offers the High School of Business. What it is is that students take certain classes throughout their high school years, and they graduate with a separate diploma from the "High School of Business". There is talk about making this diploma worth 12 credits at our state colleges, because the classes are equivalent to those of a first year business student in college. I will graduate with this diploma, and I did not factor these credits into the previous 20+
Medical Issues
As previously mentioned, I had surgery on my shoulder to repair a torn labrum. During the surgery, a tool broke and a piece was left in my shoulder. I may have to have another operation in the coming months to take it out, thus rendering me unable to do pushups.
Also, in middle school while playing football, I sustained a hip injury. Throughout many bouts of physical therapy and MRI's, no problem or solution could be determined. However, due to the fact that the shoulder tear was not seen on the MRI, the doctors think that there may be a similar problem in the hip. Most likely a torn hip flexor that didnt heal correctly, or a torn labrum. An opperation will most likely happen here...
So what do you guys think? I hope the medical problems dont disqualify me...
