Ya...If you really want to finish in 7 years then do 4 years undergrad then go to UoP OR apply a year early and finish undergrad in 3 years
and if you want to finish in 6
Then do both, apply a year early and go to UoP...
This is how to finish early...Mr./Mrs. Rush

I believe you need to have absolutely stellar scores to get into an accelerated program from HS.
Feel free to apply anyways, but you should keep in mind, you are only adding 1 year of school, and that gives you the opportunity to explore more things as well as apply to a different school when undergrad is over (instead of 7 yrs at the same school)

Children out of high school have no idea what they want to do with their lives...live a few years in the real world guy
Good point. I have a dentist friend who did the out-of-high school into a six year BA/DDS program about a decade back. Now he is living the high life, driving a Mercedes, chasing women at night, and yet he still has the gall to complain about how much he works (about 35 hours a week) and whining about how much money he has lost in the stock market. Every time he says it, though, I can't help but wonder what he would say if he worked in my shoes and did a PhD in the biomedical field--which is infinitely worse, in every aspect conceivable.
Sometimes people need to work in the real world a bit, mature a little, in order to value their ultimate choices. Otherwise you'll never know what good you have it, and instead be a malcontent when you have it great.
