[quote=Anonymous]Sorry but the HGC is not that gifted. It is a whole group that does maybe 1 grade level above work. I was surprised how easy it was and how many of the kids were not the brightest in their home schools. Growing up, our gifted program in school had debate, worm, butterfly and frog dissections, intense class field trips, and we were expected to write articles in the school paper and present topics to lower grades. We also had to take multiple tests, learn study skills, and prep for accelerated gifted classes in middle school. It started in 3rd grade. I was awesome. HGC is very standard with a few projects thrown in. I am shocked how much people strive for it and put that type of commute on their young kids. The curriculum is average at best. [/quote]
