[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From an outside perspective, 3.9 in public school is generally not going to be considered gifted and skipping a grade in public middle school is more of a red flag than anything else.[/quote] Why is it a red flag? [/quote] Public school 4.0 gpa kids, which are very common, often struggle with classes in selective private high schools such as the one at Gilman, because the expectations are different. Skipping a grade recently, in middle school, means that they would have less preparation immediately prior to high school. This can be problematic compared to skipping in early elementary, which would have less direct impact on high school preparation.[/quote]
