[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids in the 99.99% percentile have at least 40 iq points on the kids in the 90% percentile. That’s a really big difference in smartness and what they are capable of achieving in college and beyond. [/quote] HOLY SH*T!?!?!?!?! The difference between a 100 IQ and 140 IQ is [b]so, so, so[/b] much more evident than the difference between a 90th and 99th percentile score. This is one of the most misinformed and/or [b]mean-spirited things [/b]I have even seen on DCUM. [/quote] :lol: It's ok. There are kids out there who are smarter, even substantially smarter, than your own smart kid. Smart kids need other smart kids. I am working on this with my oldest (who has never met anyone smarter - yet). It's a hard pill to swallow because, the smarter you are, the more it becomes your defining feature. And what difference is evident depends on the context. [/quote]
