estimate your child's level of giftedness. The checklists start about halfway down the page.
http://www.educationaloptions.com/levels_giftedness.htm This is obviously an estimate. If there is a place on a child where their real, accurate, and true IQ is tatooed, I've yet to find it. ((humor alert))
Another way to think about things is to ask if your child is 'globally gifted' (Grin Rule of Thumb:more than 60 of academic subjects) or do they have an area or two of extreame giftedness? AND Do they have a 2nd exceptionality in addition to the giftness, such as ADHD, motor difficulties, Autistic Spectrum, Depression or Anxiety issues?
