[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Not the PP, but that indicates to me that the kid really would have done just fine at an HGC. We can debate whether or not he missed much! :wink: [b]Just another example of how many bright, deserving kids get left out of the HGC and how the system is quite flawed.[/b] [/quote] This goes for anything, though. Plenty of bright, deserving kids don't get into Harvard, for example. Is that system quite flawed? [/quote] That's a ridiculous comparison. Harvard is a private university. We're talking about 9 year olds in a PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM. It's definitely flawed that we pick out a few students based on their performance in K-2nd grade and some test scores and designate them as 'gifted'. And, to be honest, many people do think our system of higher education is pretty flawed. [/quote]
