[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had great grades, a perfect SAT, later LSAT, etc etc and still wish that I had not only not been advanced but had actually been redshirted. My foolish parents gave me the gift of “advanced classes at an early age” when what I really needed was to be the same size as everyone else. I can still remember the looks on my classmates faces when I dunked in a pick up game post college. They were all 22 and I was barely 19. The world doesn’t need “advanced 14 year olds,” it needs well rounded 25 year olds who become wise adults. Hold them back! [/quote] All of them?[/quote]
