I am defiantly 2E of some kind, although my strengths/weaknesses are different than my sons. I can't spell even to the point that I sometimes can't figure out even the first few letters of a word. Although having never been tested by a test like the WISC I can't be SURE I would be labeled gifted. But I did end up in the top math groups at at schools that believed themselves full of gifted kids. And finally majored in math in college because it was the easy way to get a university degree.
My struggle has always been that my profile is that I'm very good at math but struggled with spelling,writing and expressing myself. Teachers in junior high had a hard time with me because I didn't fit the mold. It was OK that some boys were only good at math & science but not girls for some reason. I could tell it frustrated them and it felt like they didn't quite know what to do with me.
Don't really have a lot of interest in getting tested at this point. But learning about my son and all about 2E has changed my perspectives on my childhood struggles.
