[quote=Anonymous]I did G&T growing up. No downsides. We live in a different state that does not have it and I really wish we had something like that program here. It was socially also a really good thing for me. I thrived better in smaller group settings, and I was very quiet and wasn't given opportunities to socialize outside of school, so it helped having that built in smaller group of classmates who were similar to me. The curriculum was also just better. Non-repetitive, more challenging, more interesting, and more engaging. There were a couple subjects that I did not get into G&T for until later years, and I didn't do so well or enjoy those classes. The standard classes were more about volume of work, repetition, and the large class format was hard too, because you didn't get to engage, you had to do a lot of waiting for everyone to catch up, etc. [/quote]
