[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are kids that are either [b]1) genius at test taking[/b] or 2) test prepped to death by their parents and in a real classroom setting are failures. The one 18 year old PhD student I knew at MIT was pretty immature and unable to get along with others. [/quote] You only needed the first bolded word. Like it or not, geniuses exist and we can tell who they are through testing.[/quote] True and I'm sure there many at TJ who weren't accelerated to this extreme. Kids aren't born knowing advanced math. They learn it through exposure even geniuses. Sure, some kids learn faster than others. There are some reasonable many ways to handle this without ruining a kids childhood and it's also okay to be bored sometimes. [/quote]
