I’m sure it’s popular reading around these parts, but just in case any parents of university-age children are interested in some case studies of different accelerants and haven’t read it yet—you might want to read Miraca Gross’ “Exceptionally Gifted Children”. In particular, the case studies of the pseudonymous “Christopher” (generalist/extra breadth) vs “Adrian” (Terence Tao, radical subject-specific acceleration) provide interesting real-world contrasts in acceleration options in high school and university. The approaches are quite different, each designed to meet the needs of its particular student.
