I was clinically assessed using the Weschler method at age 4 as part of a school admission requirement. And subscribe to an asynchronous development model meaning one can excel at art or music or communication but perhaps not maths or abstract thinking. If you are in an environment that fosters your growth or not. All those differences influence how you progress within society relative to societal expectations.

''If you are in an environment that fosters your growth or not''. Again, it seems like you perceive some areas as being ''above'' others. I'm not really interested in arguing about such a complicated subject with you and don't understand why you're not exploring this further yourself. It seems like you just want to argue and believe that you are right.

If you have a high IQ then you have a high IQ. You are focusing on different ''skills''. Why not let people focus on the skills that they want to learn? Why does it matter to you if a gifted person shows ''asynchronous development''? Let children be children. They are still intelligent.

I personally haven't found anything that I'm not good at yet and had a very easy time with everything as a child.

''All those differences influence how you progress within society relative to societal expectations''. It doesn't seem like you know much about the subject yourself but I'm glad that you mentioned ''societal expectations'' because that's exactly what you're focusing on.

What are these ''societal expectations'' that gifted people need to live up to? You want high IQ people to ''fit in''? Don't they? Why ''gifted'' people specifically and not everyone else?

It really doesn't seem like you understand much about the subject and I really don't feel the need to go through everything with you, like I said earlier. I'm not claiming to be an expert either.
