<p>Arjun, depending on where you live, reactions to homeschooling can be a mixed bag. Some like it and sometimes even support it, some have a cool live-and-let-live attitude towards it, and some are just not keen on the idea. Homeschooling is what you make it to be. Homeschooling can be done in an infinite number of ways. And yes, homeschoolers can and do go on to top colleges if they are qualified and if they really wanted to. I suggest you read a lot on the subject. Your local library can help out with that. From then on, once you’ve exhausted yourself silly with reading, you’ll have a much better idea of what homeschooling really is and if you want to do it. Then you can research your state laws on homeschooling and look for people in your area who are homeschooling. Good luck.</p>
