GATEway Any Forums: How Many Of You Are From GATEway?

>weird card games with symbols on them that were unique
Yeah I remember having to do these in the 4th grade. Truthfully I think the whole program is flawed. Everyone told me I would be successful even though I never worked hard and was fat. By contrast the kids I thought of as being dumb as a kid are some of the most successful.

Most of us are probably just autistic.

lmao

>GATE
We were sent to a camp, tonnes of problem solving and memory tests.
One of the memory tests I remember quite clearly is that we were shown a photo on a projector for five seconds. Then we had another test involving sound (about 15 minutes long) then we were all given a printout of that photo and asked to write five differences between it and the one that had been shown on the projector.
There was another test that involved us being taken into a room where we were presented with written instructions, we then had to direct a guy how to assemble a kit set chair using the instructions. We had to sit on our hands two meters away so we could not give visual indictors in our instructions, it all had to be oral.
There was another test we had where we were given a set of pattern recognition images (like Mensa has for IQ tests) and asked to rank the three potential answers for each image in order of likelihood of being the correct choice.

>, of course it all sounds like special tests were conducted to assess the disability and place students in special ed
the GATE program was about half the top stream and some select individuals from the mid stream for years 9 and 10 (I think that's 8th and 9th grade in North America)
They were the gifted students, plus some others.

Well if you thought it would fall into your lap, then yes. You can NPC your way to success by grinding and being conscientiousness. IQ tests don't test for that

You sound urban. Not a lot of your kind there to be honest.

Self aware midwits are the white-adjacents of the high IQ spaz community

>Specialists can't figure out why I have such extreme behavioural issues and delayed learning when I show extremely high problem solving skills
>Mother is violent, hits me constantly, leaves in a room with nothing but a bed in it for months at a time (can leave for school and shitting), sends me to a relative who beats and molests me (Mother is aware) because it's free childcare
>"WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS CHILD, WHY IS LIKE THIS!"

Just venting, single mothers are monsters.
