Our personal experience shows a difference in types of acheivement. One ds is accellerated in math, but not gifted. he is also proficient in music, but not gifted. Meaning, compared to other same age kids he looks gifted, but we know better. He is just ahead. Other ds has intuitive relationship with both math and music. He only needs words to hook to thoery in both. I wonder if the relationship occurs at a certain threshold.
(edit) OK, wasn't clear. I mean, I wonder if a EG/PG kid gifted in math would genuinely not be able to take an instrument to a higher level. I'm just thinking if they put their heart to it, it would happen.
Not sure this can be vetted in a school, but I'm online and saw this, so added my 2 cents.
