What are the 4 High School Guides? My 7th grader is in Res 2 Ref. I am wanting clear cut credits for High School.

If you look at the bottom of this page, you will see the four high school guides - 2 which are completely done, one that Carrie is currently writing (and is available in pieces), and the last guide she will write next year:

So, if I were to skip 1 guide...which should I skip?

I plan to skip the final guide with my middle child. For science though, I plan to use it as is except use the advanced science in RevtoRev, add in the Chem 101 DVDs in MtMM, and then skip the science in WG. I also plan to include econ and finance in two of the other high school years. Other than that, I will skip most resources in the final guide.

It sounds like you only want to use the high school guides for high school. That will work only if your student is ready for the 9th grade World Geography guide by the time she is in 9th grade. It is a big jump up from MTMM. The reading level is much more challenging and the amount of work and length of the day is significantly more. If she fits solidly in RTR now as a 7th grader then I wouldn't skip anything and would just plan on not doing the final high school guide which will be American History 2 for high school. It isn't that hard to make MTMM high school credit worthy and I am sure when you get to that point Carrie and Julie can help you with that.

She flies through Res to Ref and is advanced. I think she could do it.

If you look at the placement chart and you think that for 8th grade she places in MTMM then I guess you could skip Rev to Rev and move her to MTMM. I would only do that if she places solidly there and if right now she is doing RTR exactly as written. Doing all the reading on her own and doing all the Independent boxes Independently. I can't say again how big of a jump it is from MTMM to the high school guide. In order to handle it a student needs to complete MTMM as written.
