Gifted child

I do the same thing!

Update: got a D on the assignment and I’m currently failing the class.

@@rayy__7630 boy do I feel your pain the only advice I can give you is STOP procrastinating you'll eventually burnout from all the stress you put on yourself. I'm a senior and depressed at the moment. I'm on medical trust me dude not worth it.

Same! I'm also gifted and procrastinate to the last minute lol

Ahhh. Lol. I do that tooo. Im sure you did it and got the best grade or w/e...

Is humility what you are hinting at? Would you please reveal the riddle?

I understand that more like the price tag being the "challenges" that gifted people have to go through :) Yes it is a gift but at what cost ?

I love that analogy!

@@shoudaogao6953 It means you don't know the cost behind the gift, ie the difficulties or disadvantages giftedness brings with it

Perfect metafor!!

I bet you were born in china

You are lucky to have such an amazing friend like her. I hope you are okay.

I'd actually like to hear 'em out, also other people shouldn't bother you bro.

U baka

Is it though? I think that bodily-kinesthetic is a bit unusual to list as "intelligence", but other than that you could imagine being highly above the norm in one category and much below the norm in another. Only if strong correlation between all of these can be shown, it would be more useful to throw the concept out and instead go with a single number G; expressed as a "G=x, except for disability Y and Z" model in the ones who don't fit.

Good luck proving that. Based on what I have roughly observed, I would disagree. If you come from a not-well-off family, chances are your iq is going to be lower. If you smoke dope, your IQ is going to be lower. If you spend too much time trolling on youtube, your IQ is going to be lower.

Paracletus Revelation What she is saying is that labels don't matter. Because a student has low grades doesn't mean he/she is not gifted. Similar to that, because a student has high grades does not mean he/she is not gifted. A student that has low grades that is gifted could have low grades because simply, they are not challenged. This leads to boredom in which they do not want to participate as they feel it is an insult to their intelligence. BUT their low grades do not define their ability to solve problems (or iq). Oh, and hi :P

Anony Mouse exactly. It’s a different wiring of the brain. This proves the issue we face - people’s lack of understanding of this neurodiversity.

I bet you were born I china

Yes, she's probably gifted, has done her research, and is speaking out to help the whole community.

She just talked about Multiple Intelligences, sub-genius. You're off in your own Private Idaho.

This is how fights are started

I will agree to raise my fist slightly higher than normal
