How about kids test in? They can take classes online, if they perform well enough, they get to attend in person, everyone else can bang on the gates via a MOOC.

Why not take 1 or 2 university classes your junior and senior year of HS?

Wasn't this the point of AP classes?

I think so, but in the method I am outlining, the student would be doing an audition with a university they would like to attend, it isn't just for college credit.

That would be neat.

I think there are some Community Colleges/Universities that will allow it, or used to.
