Obviously all kids are different, but my DD13 was an 11 year old 8th grader taking Biology at the HS, and she loved it. Science has always been among her favorite classes, and is definitely a strength for her - putting her in 8th grade science or the HS general science class would have been a waste of time.

Considering your DD's score of 24, I'd say give it a try. You can always pull back on the rigor if it turns out to be too much for your DD.

Best of luck,

For gifted children, doing nothing is the wrong choice.
