Unfortunately, this is one of those ways in which GT students challenge the ways in which educational programming supposedly "works." The problem here is that nobody thought about this when writing the rules and the policies, which leave a sort of "undefined" gap between them that kids like this fall into.

Our state has the X years requirement for HS diploma and that's one reason we saw value in a whole-grade skip rather than SSA (since DS was over-all ahead, not just in math).
