[quote=Anonymous]He went during the mid 80ties. I know at that time there were other 14 yr olds besides my bro. Not that many maybe one or two per class but there were more who started at 15, 16, 17. This was prior to Hopkins opening their gifted center so they could have changed it. I don't know. The kids like my bro were all math prodigies and were recruited on the basis of their SATs which they took when they were in 7th grade. We grew up around NASA and were one of the neighborhoods in the country that Hopkins targeted for kids who were good at math. It depends on the individual what you get out of school or anything. DB had few friends prior to Hopkins and they're the ones who discovered his talent for math and where he found his passion (his work) and made many of his lifelong friends. He got a lot out of it even if he did it early and quickly. [/quote]
