True story. My uncle dropped out of high school in the late 1940's, then passed the entrance exam to Harvard and was admitted. He later earned a PhD at the University of Illinois and went on to a successful career in business and university teaching.
What you are suggesting is nothing new. We actually did it at a time in our not so distant history when this country was still sane and the educrat unions didn't have a stranglehold on the industry.

Homeschoolers are again re-inventing the wheel! Homeschoolers are eagerly sought by the leading universities and are entering at early ages and graduating **years** ahead of their contemporaries.
My 3 homeschoolers entered college at the ages of 13, 12, and 13. All finished all general college requirements and Calculus III by the age of 15. Two earned B.S. degrees in mathematics by the age of 18. The oldest attended college/university part-time and pursued other very enriching avocations.
