The CogAT is often low, even in HG+ kids. It's a screener for GTness, not an actual GT test (though this is how many schools use it anyway).

Lots of benefits! The social contact with other HG+ families is the biggest one for us. Though having a DYS consultant and other experts available to help you deal with school issues and such is really great also!

There are lots of other benefits, but I have to go get DS4 ready for bed. I'll let others address them for you. smile
