[quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry, op. I don’t have kids in the DMV area. As an outsider it seems insane to do this to kids. I was never selected for the gifted program in elementary school. It wasn’t much. Like an hour pullout once a week where there did cool projects. I remember it bugging me a lot. Not because I was jealous, but because I didn’t understand the arbitrary criteria for admission. (It was initiated by parent referral. I later learned this.) But it didn’t consume me. I ended up taking an IQ test in my late teens and scoring well above gifted, but at that point it didn’t matter. I had already outscored everyone on the SAT in my high school. I might have been a little eager to prove myself in the end![/quote]
