As a fellow Bangladeshi and a prospective US applicant I strongly recommend you to go back to school. My reasoning is as follows:


If you are looking to apply to US, your transcripts consist of your school grades, school exam results, class rank (if provided) and board exam results. A very strong board exam won’t make up for lackluster school performance. How you perform at school is an indication of how you will perform at university level. if you are looking at UK, Canada or even Bangladesh then I guess it will probably not matter.
I don’t you get the same extracurricular opportunities as a homeschooled student or as a schoool student. Remember homeschooled applicants have their extracurriculars more heavily scrutinised. A lot of your activities are outside school which cannot be verified through your school adminstration.


I understand your frustation with school but trust me going to school is the best thing to do.

BTW congrats on your commendable O Level results. Are you from Dhaka? :)
