Question

Hi everyone,
I'm currently a year 10 student, and my 'dream' job is to be a games designer(of course you just don't get hired as one). I actually do not want to go through Year 11 and 12. The reason for this is because, basicly I'm not an academic person and I'd learn a whole lot more if I just worked on making games, programming and working at my current job(website firm).
Do they look for year 12 certificates? Do I need to go to college to get into the game industry?
Also, I'm in Australia - If that really makes any difference what so ever.
Thanks!
