I must say that almost all homeschooled children that I have met are at a higher intelligence level than public school children of the same age and grade.

Pianoman,
I like that idea of a 'benchmark' administered to parents wishing to homeschool. The success of homeschooling is as much about the parents as the children. More intelligent children are capable of working and learning primarily on their own. Some need much more hands on teaching and learning through following examples.
Sorry if I broad-brushed the issue. I know there are some very successful homeschooled young people.
