My bet? Nope. Schools pretty much only want to tap the high achievers because they're easy to spot and work with. They're the teacher-pleasers. (And I can say that because I was one!)

GT but underachieving looks a lot like average and/or unmotivated to learn. Neither screams GT to most school professionals...so they don't want to put out the effort for those kids. They just figure the IQ test must be wrong.

That's my cynical take...
