My son is 2E or 10E some days. Hehehehe He can work as fast or as little as he wants/can. Some subjects he flies thru like math and others we take much slower-LA. He was full grade-skipped and placed into the 3rd grade GT program. I was told that is the equivalent of the regular 3rd-4th grade PS classroom. They have been AWESOME accomodating his 2E issues allowing me to tweak here and there. Like I said the downside is the PS hoops. He has to do X work for state standards, etc. We compact a lot as there is still quite a bit of repetition and redundant work. We get together with a group of other CA kids for playdates, science days, art days and field trips. It is amazing to see the 'lack of social skills' he was labeled with in PS just disappear. Oh, our 2E issues are writing and he has been found to have tracking and convergence insufficiency which make reading/writing a ton of work. Like I said they have been awesome working with me on that. HTH
