Congrats on that! Always nice to hear an alternative education story, as I was homeschooled myself.

I just wanted to say that calculus in today's society, for most people, is irrelevant. In day to day stuff for most people it's just not necessary. Unless you're doing something like engineering.

Statistics and probability are infinitely more useful and are what should be emphasized over calculus. Some schools offer that choice but calculus as a requirement is a fail.

how do you learn probability without calculus ? the definition of the mean for continuous distributions involve an integral.
