By the time they would normally graduate from high school, they have completed two years of college general education requirements.
$$$$$$$$$$$4
My ***NORMAL*** three homeschooled children were in college by the ages of 13, 12, and 13. All were completely finished with their college generals and all 3 levels of calculus by the age of 15. The two younger graduated from college at the age of 18 with B.S. degrees in mathematics. The older of these two just finished a masters degree in math.
The oldest of the three is a nationally and internationally ranked athlete. He chose accounting since it meshed well with his training and travel schedule. At nineteen, only 13 courses shy of a degree, he left for Eastern Europe on a church assignment. He returned recently, at the age of 21, completely fluent in Russian, and has resumed his athletic training and academic studies.
My children are NORMAL. It is academically institutionalized children who are socially and academically delayed.
