If we go by the two-years-at-Stanford, he probably did repeat a year somewhere and then go to Stanford in '02. *shrugs*
And yeah, Dean either just gave up on school because he didn't plan on doing anything but hunting. I just got S1 and S2 on DVD and am doing a rewatch and you can really see in the first few episodes of the series that Dean really likes the saving-people aspect. (and I just saw the part of "Wendigo" where they mention that demons can go through walls, even though there are demons out the wazoo in the series and they never go through walls *go figure*) My headcanon is that Dean goes for his GED after Sam leaves because he doesn't want to be totally uneducated (on paper anyway) while his little brother got a full ride to Stanford through hard work and intelligence despite all the moving around and possible grade-repeating.
