<p>I agree with cptofthehouse - tests are good, unless you’re presenting as a totally different candidate - arts with portfolio as he said, or very VERY in depth on a particular topic (butterflies? foot odor?), where there are no tests that show the level of your understanding. My son took a pretty standard selection of science/math/humanities and had excellent test scores and recommendations, and got into very selective schools.</p>
<p>I disagree with plentyquestions - colleges seem to like homeschoolers. Maybe it is the novelty and trying to get a diverse class, or maybe it’s a track record of success.</p>
