I used to be homeschooled, and I think it's generally agreed that homeschoolers are smart. I am doing ap calculus in 9th grade, having just come out of homeschooling through middle school. I would rarely spend more than 3.5 hours a day on school, and I was doing high school civics in the first semester and ap economics in the second semester, all the while doing precalculus AND physics. I might just be a smart kid, but you know something is broken when you can spend half the time doing things that are twice as hard. I just started regular school and I don't like spending 8 hours of my day on something I could get done in 4 hours in homeschool
