Jamie Lynn SpearsJamie Lynn Spears has made the most of her time away from the spotlight by passing her high school equivalency exam.

The 16 year old has had time off from her Nickelodeon series Zoey 101 since announcing her pregnancy in December and after a few weeks of hard studying, she sat the GED test about a month ago. Her spokesperson yesterday confirmed that she had passed the exam, with particularly high marks in reading comprehension.

A source close to the star told People magazine that Jamie Lynn is now thinking about taking a college entrance test to keep her options open after she gives birth later this spring: “She’s not wasting any time. People don’t know her. When she gets something in her head, she’ll make it happen. Everybody is so supportive of her.”

But Jamie Lynn herself is quoted in Us Weekly explaining she’s not got a precise college game plan just yet: “I haven’t thought anything about what I might study. I’ll have to look more into that. But if I went anywhere, I think it would be fun to go to Louisiana State University.”
