<p>Wanting to become a physician isn’t about the money; there a lot of easier ways to do that- think business school. Many intelligent young people think of various medical specialties as a way to use their abilities, interest in science and helping people.</p>
<p>NO highly gifted student fits into schools- HS or college. That’s the nature of being gifted- asynchronous development means you don’t have age peers who are intellectual peers. The sooner theser students can get to a level that matches their thinking the better off they are- no dying of boredom… Imagine yourself as a child who one day will go to college being forced to be in a classroom of very ■■■■■■■■ kids- going so slowly over every basic activity you could do already and not being allowed to do things- that’s the experience a highly gifted child faces in the normal classroom. They don’t miss the things you would. Also- parents do give their children many age appropriate activites in addition to the intellectual stimulation. Who wants to date a dumb average person if you are extremely intelligent- how could they be interesting? Etc.</p>
