[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once your child is in high school, you drop the 'gifted' label. At that point is it 100% about achievement.[/quote] OP again. Apologies for using the word "gifted." I meant very smart. [/quote] Without an IQ test to back that up, you might as well drop all mention of higher cognitive reasoning, whether it's "very smart" or another label, because the fact is, your child's high school achievements may not even get her to your state's flagship. I don't say this to be mean, OP. Seriously, check this year's admittance: you might get a nasty surprise. You need to consider safety schools if you're going to pin your hopes on getting financial aid (merit aid seems unlikely given that you've been unwilling to divulge her stats).[/quote]
