For the schools that offer students the ability to take university-level courses, students aren't "skipping" other classes.

Many schools solve this by having different difficulty-levels of courses. My school, in the US, had three.

Germany has different levels of schools. I was in the one for highest education, targeting a university degree.

Schools in the US often offer different tracks within the same school but still offer different difficulty levels within them, including university level courses.
