High school is more difficult than it was in 1990.
Students have to take more classes and more difficult classes.
Some students no longer wait to have a diploma in hand before college begins.
The National Center for Education Statistics examined the transcripts of 2009 high school graduates across the country.
According to the report, students averaged 420 more hours of instruction than those in 1990, with more emphasis on math and science courses.
