[quote=Anonymous]I do alum interviews for kids applying to college _ DO NOT homeschool. ONE of the few truly negative reviews I gave was to a homeschooled girl,  and I felt bad blaming her for decision her parents made. She bragged to me about how gifted she was, especially in math _ had to start taking classes at NOVA Community College because her parents couldn't keep up with her, she was so much smarter than all her community college classmates etc.

We can access their SAT scores _ I have never done it in 10 years of interviewing except with this girl _ hers were sh!t in math (and verbal too). I felt so bad for her _ living this deluded existence because she'd never been exposed to the real world or sat next to kids who were truly gifted in math etc etc. She was sweet but there were so many issues that a few years of being surrounded by peers could have taken care of for her. Her dad was a big donor alum, was sure she would get in anyway _ she didn't. Don't do this to your kids.[/quote]
