From the little bit we saw of it (on Medicine Day) and a ton of what we hear about it, their med school looked tremendous. This guy has been telling us he wants to be a doctor since third grade and has only wavered when he's considered medical research instead. Time will tell what he decides when he's really out there. I'm not writing anything in stone, but he's starting toward what he thinks he wants.

The choice is up to you. Homeschooling doesn't help or hurt your chances of getting into a good college. It's what you make of it. Keep in mind that colleges will expect you to have challenged yourself and created your own opportunities as a homeschooler. You won't be able to say, "Well my school didn't offer that," because homeschool offers whatever you and your family decide it does. Most of the top homeschooled students in the country have taken both AP courses and community college courses. And if they have any interests, they have pursued them aggressively both on their own and within the community. There may be no NHS, but there are still honor societies homeschoolers can join, or you can take courses at a local college and join there honor society. There might be a homeschool band in your area, or you can start one of your own. You can't join FBLA, but you can start your own business or work for someone else's.

Cyber school is similar in some ways. Often students of cyber schools are still part of the homeschooling community and so will be expected to participate in homeschool ECs or start their own. Cyber school can also limit your options as you can't create your own classes. And many cyber schools are not very good quality. Statewide public ones tend to be pretty good, for-profit, not so much. I have friends who love it. I personally took one class on Florida Virtual School and hated it. It's relative.
