Hi everyone, thanks for the answers!
Sorry, I should've explained what I meant by surprised.

Since I found this site it's been reminding me a lot of things in my own childhood. Anyways, I took the ACT in middle school through the Midwest talent search and got almost exactly the minimum scores listed to get into DYS. I was surprised because I've never thought of myself in the PG range and, hence, the question. I know I tested gifted in grade school but if anything I just assumed I was at the lower end of the spectrum and that I was a hard worker and, thus, was able to do the things I can do. I hope that helps to clarify. I didn't mean surprised in the sense that those scores are low, just that what I got would've been at the cutoff. Sorry for the confusion there!
