As a home-schooled student, I had far more opportunity than most to pursue my own interests. I was able to learn the core subjects at my own pace, instead of being tied to some artificial clock and calendar schedule. I could rip through things I found easy, and take my time if a subject was challenging. It may not be fore everyone, but it was ideal for me.

It also fostered a certain self-sufficiency I saw a lot of my fellow college students lacked later on. I knew how to use reference books and library resources. I knew how to plan my time for study. Most seemed to expect someone else to do that for them.
