[quote=Anonymous][quote]I agree. A homo sapiens and being alive and "normal" is a basic requirement for the prize of "gifted" at birth. Then add environment, prep, focus, drive, dedication, preserverance, preparation, hard work and of course some luck and the skies are the limit. [/quote] There is no correlation of the WPSSI, Cogat, NNAT, WISC or any other alphabet soup test result you can dream of in a NOVA 5-year-old that measures the future intellectual or other heights in life a NOVA child will reach or attain. Too many of you are plain drunk on the "test for giftedness" Koolaid in the D.C. area primary educational drinking water I applaud young children who strive to put their best foot forward with preparation and prepping for whatever endeavour. God knows we need more of this. It beats being hypnotised like a zombie for hour after hour of TV, movie, video gaming and face booking for 24/7 if allowed. Go ahead and prep for your tests. Who cares when you start, the night before or when your parent enroll you in serial summer camps and after school enrichment programs at home or through other vendors. Everyone in NOVA is doing it. Do not believe all the sneaky liars next door. [/quote]
