For me it's like, you are "gifted", you do good at school, you know more than your peers, you process information a bit faster and then what? The schooling will catch up with your "gifts" and you will either adapt quickly, slowly, or not at all.
i aced literally any standardized test thrown at me in high school, but get to college and they want you to write two pages? i couldnt complete a single assignment and dropped out.
parents pushed me so hard only seeing the speed i was moving at, when only i could see the brick wall i was speeding towards, and i didnt dare express concerns because it would only land me with more accomodations i didnt need and wouldnt use but would make me feel more alienated from my peers.
