I took my 14 year old out to the local community college for a Placement Test to see if he could take some courses. He scored well, and they said he could take any course he wanted, and acted like he was some kind of "genius" kid.

I'm here to tell you , the kid is no genius!!! He just got a good basic education in math (thank you Saxon Math), reading, and grammar, and that's why he did good on the test.

i KNOW JUST WHAT YOU MEAN!!! My 13 year old son has tested very high too, and it's funny because he is no genius either, lol. Thank you Abeka, lol!
Cody has taken 6 college credit courses via correspond, and everyone thinks, WOW. We love double-dipping.
Anyway, God Bless your family and homeschool.
I tell Cody that he and his fellow homeschoolers will be the "bosses" of tomorrow, he agrees.
