Some of the questions sounded to me like, "Has your child cured cancer yet?" or "What is your child's position on the latest international nuclear non-proliferation treaty?"
Really? I just looked at the current application and I see they seem to the be same questions they have been asking for years. I really didn't get the cure cancer vibe even a tiny bit.
Sorry -- I'll add a little more drip to my sarcasm in the future.
But part of this (for me) came from an article at their site that discussed differences between EG & MG kids. According to the LOG-chart-du-jour, my wundkind falls into the PG column, so after reading that article I looked at his scores again and thought, "Nope - not my kid."
Remember, I'm dealing with N=1 for a sample size, so everything my son does is average. I don't easily recognize "surprising depth" or "prodigious talent" as such.
After speaking with his doctor -- and seeing what he's been able to do with a WOT in a couple of areas -- I'm anticipating some incredible accomplishments (relatively speaking) once he's no longer constricted by the lock-step curriculum.
