When the non-gifted students are done with school, the gifted students keep going and are able to self-teach very quickly.
Or, self-destruct.
That is what tends to happen in my family. The asperger like quirks and the inability to tolerate boredom are an explosive mix. My younger child who tests a SD lower (I think he was too young and he would go up to Mid EG if retested later though) has an explosive temper at time but is generally more socially adroit and can play the system probably has better odds of surviving.
