It's important to remember that bright vs gifted isn't a binary thing, but a continuum. In addition, forums like this tend to attract the more exceptional so it can skew the perception.

Regardless, at that age the label isn't important. What matters are her wants and needs to grow and some arbitrary label or score doesn't change that.
