[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Oh, please! Would it be better if I said that kids who have to prep for these tests really aren't that bright? [/quote] More drivel. Just like saying Michael Phelps or Tiger Woods is a poor swimmer or golfer because of the intense prep (hours daily) since the age of 5.[/quote] Actually, it's not. Woods learned to golf at 2, but Phelps didn't start swimming till 7. Both men likely wouldn't have reached the top of their sport if not for intensive practice, but they also had the innate ability and genetic make-up to excel. Woods was considered a prodigy and his father was a pro-golfer, which is why we haven't seen tons of kids whose parents pushed them into golf at 3 become the next Tiger-like phenom. My guess is if Woods had to take a test in grade school to measure athletic ability or potential, he pretty much would have had to just show up. [/quote]
