The hardest academic deficit to overcome is often writing ability. The English language is largely an art that is acquired through practice. Many gifted youngsters do possess above grade level writing and reading proficiencies, but those who aren�t effective, efficient writers when they enter college, often find it is very hard to catch up. The humanities have fewer essential facts and don�t require a particular progression of knowledge and thus students rarely suffer any detrimental knowledge gap from missing high school versions of these classes. What the humanities do require is adequate competency in writing, argumentation, and reading.
