A quick and easy test you can do to know if you're actually gifted is start paying attention in class and try to do well. If you get 100% with minimal effort, you are gifted. I did that in high school math class, I decided for a month or two to do a few exercises per class instead of just listening to the teacher and doing the tests, went from 70-80% to a consistent 100% on every single test and exam. Yeah, no studying, just a few of the exercises.

@chrispeacock1257

I took a further maths course in high school which the year group’s top 15 maths students were put on. Our teacher routinely told us we were a bunch of autists because only autistic kids could do maths so well. She was probably right though. I’ve been diagnosed as slightly spectral and I know at least three others from that class have subsequently been diagnosed with some sort of autism. When I was 5, my teachers thought I was dumb af. They reckoned I’d fail the entrance exams to the local middle school because I wouldn’t learn normally. When my parents removed me from that school and enrolled me somewhere smaller, my new teachers recognised that they had to teach me differently from the other kids. Within 6 months I was doing lessons with the kids in the year above and I stayed ahead of the curve my entire education. Sometimes it’s more about the teachers and less about the student. A good teacher understands what each student needs to thrive. Yet, too many teachers see kids as dumb because they fail to unlock their potential. God knows what my life would have been like if I’d have stayed at that school and never had talented teachers.

I got called lazy when I was uninspired to do the work all my life, then, at uni I met a teacher who deeply inspired me and gave me the time of day, who still thought I was lazy until I got top marks by the end of the semester since I finally had a reason to put in effort and learn/do the work, at which point I was considered their favourite student. As the comment above says, I also find it's more about the teacher being able to match with the student and understand/learn what kind of person they are, what makes them tick, and how to inspire them.

When I was younger my classmates always made fun of me when I asked questions in class or made comments. No one understood what I was saying. Sometimes the teachers would do the same thing. In kindergarten (1980's) my teacher would slap my hand and tell me right handed people were smarter. Because I had no one to step in and teach me what I needed to learn I clammed up. It took many, many years of getting the highest scores on tests before I unlearned what my earlier years of school had taught me. I was never a timid kid, always on the football, soccer, baseball field, hustling kids on the basketball courts, tutoring peers when they needed help, but I was still "bullied" by the group. As far as special needs students getting the help they need, myself and others on the ends of the spectrum amount to so few that it wouldn't make sense to implement special programs. What will help is elevating the whole curve and recognizing reality for what it is. Intelligence is only one aspect of a successful life.

I have an above average IQ and it’s a pretty solid ego trap. Because I used it a lot of times to compensate for my low self esteem. When you’re a nerd and behave as a shy and socially awkward individual you engage in intellectualization and that bears a heavy risk to fall into the arrogance of intellect category. Though I’m pretty careful not to judge opinions based on the intellect of the person who utters it and though I believe that all people are a equal of worth I can’t deny that there is some portion of arrogance inside me. But apart from that I mostly got in insatiable thirst for knowledge. I could watch lectures of different academia topics such as neuroscience, physics, philosophy or psychology 24/7. Even when I’m talking a walk I’m listening to audiobooks with academic topics. It’s just who I am - it’s not something I’m doing to get attention. I just can’t help it, just like an addict.

Here we are, perusing through the commentary under a video about excessive IQ. The very act leaves me confused about whether or not I have an enormous ego problem. On the one hand, it feels as though my curiosity has driven me to the point of mental exhaustion with no concern for personal advancement. But looking at it from the other side, it seems simply impossible _not_ to be arrogant while expressing any of the insights that my curiosity has fought to earn me. At what point does self-reflection become self-indulgence?

@@pocket83squared Reading again this comment from two years ago - almost seems as if another person has written it! And though it is factual that I’ve tested above average and that people constantly keep saying to me how I’m “so knowledgeable and smart”, I feel ashamed for writing myself how “my” IQ is so above average. That’s exactly the reason I will not delete it (which was my first impulse). Which brings me to your question: You have to decide for yourself at what point self reflection becomes self indulgence. Your emotions will guide you in this process! If my comment triggered something inside of you it means at least that you’re uncertain about your ego. And this is a good thing. There’s a whole another world in the realm of emotions to be investigated by you! Learning about it will make you more complete as a person. I’ve always admired Richard Feynman and the way he was explaining physics. When you’re really absolutely invested in knowledge and knowledge alone, you may begin to sound something like him! Your comment sounds like it is coming from a genuinely curious person I believe that’s your way to go and I wish you good luck!

Everyone thinks a different way YET we are subjected to take the SAME standardized tests.

It's not actually fun being gifted. It's difficult to make friends because when you try to make conversation from your point of view, your thoughts don't mesh with others' thinking. Average people often don't understand our jokes. The IQ difference can be a formidable barrier to finding common ground. It's also difficult to find entertainment that's.... well.. entertaining. Pop culture doesn't do it, I find the best way to entertain myself is by learning new things. We're often shunned because we 'always have our nose in a book'... to be fair we're just trying to avoid the boredom that plagues us.

Some people respond well to the kind of praise she talked about at the end, others don't. Spend your whole childhood getting told how smart or amazing you are only to enter into adulthood and being confronted with people smarter than you or who just work a lot harder than you and it's easy to not be able to cope with that. Or they can have no way to cope with failure because they were raised thinking their inherent qualities and attributes lead to success so when they fail it must also be due to who they are. And you get more "normal" problems like they never had to try hard to succeed until later in school, in college, or even until they started working; thus they have no idea how to try and push themselves. Some people will overcome this, some won't.

In fact, one of my bad habits is questioning my brain on a damn near scheduled basis lol I have a pretty low self esteem, I have seizures from time to time, and my attention deficit is extremely annoying (most people think i’m hard of hearing because my focus makes it almost impossible to properly and actively listen). Really, what i’ve learned through it all is that your IQ does not define you. Having a high IQ doesn’t make you a doctor or scientist; having a low IQ doesn’t make you an idiot. A fish isn’t stupid for its inability to climb a tree. Have a great day/night everyone! :)

Absolutely! I scored a 145 on mine as a child (though as you get older you gain or lose on average about 15 points since IQ quantifiers change on child vs adult). I've just lived my life just like everyone else. Granted, I've always been considered weird or unusual, but I've come to have a healthy appreciation for it. After all, if everyone was normal in the world, we would live in a very boring place.

I wonder if schools label gifted children with ADHD so that they don't have to think about tailoring the child's education to their unique abilities. When I was at school in the 90s I reckon a child that was constantly distracted like that would simply be labelled as lazy and berated for it.

In some cases, possibly. I doubt the dismissal is deliberate in most cases - often teachers just aren't good at properly identifying kids that may have learning differences like giftedness or ADHD. Also, it's possible for gifted kids to have ADHD as well - as you implied,, there are several overlapping signs between the two, and for some kids, their giftedness hides their ADHD because it makes coping easier (until they reach a big enough challenge, such as college and beyond).

Exactly because it's considered a disability, that's why we don't have a proper system for developing the abilities of autistic children. There is another video with a story of a father of autistic kid (boy), who used to hurt himself and behave like very disabled. Until they brought him to some very good expert, who told the parents of a special place for autistic kids, in very peaceful and noise free atmosphere. They brought the boy there for a while and suddenly he started to develop normally and to exhibit higher (then normal) abilities. I think that all autistic kids have the ability to develop better than neurotypical kids, but most of them are into improper environments. These kids are very sensitive and whatever might not make impression as anything special for a neurotypical person, can be terrifying for autistic child. They cannot cope with too much data from the surroundings and often get sensory overload, as their brains are too sensitive for what we consider 'normal life'. But under the right circumstances, these sensitive brains can reach better understanding on many subjects...

Growing up, a lot of concessions were made for me as a child that weren't made for other children to accommodate my learning, I never understood why but my son's diagnosis makes me question whether I was diagnosed and it has been kept from me as to not make me feel different to others. I have always had difficulty fitting in. Then I question my son's diagnosis, perhaps he is just bored, perhaps I was just bored. I am unsure as to whether it would be advantageous to get tested myself.

What is known about being autistic has changed a lot very recently, so it is possible you went under the radar throughout school, etc, you just didn't fit the very narrow set of official criteria. If you are looking into whether or not you have an autistic neurotype, I'd recommend finding some channels on KZread lead by autistic people sharing their own experiences, and researching things like monotropism that has been seen to correlate with the autistic experience as well, although it isn't specific to autistic neurotypes. My reason for this is because the official criteria for 'diagnosing autism' is still lagging behind quite a lot, so you may not feel you relate to the official, neurotypical lead external observations that you would find through many diagnostic routes, despite having your experiences relate to what many other autistic people describe theirs as. From what I've seen, the autistic community is very welcoming of anyone who self-identifies with being autistic without any formal 'diagnosis'. Unfortunately the focus on autistic children through most formal diagnostic routes means there is little in the way of support for autistic adults, despite having/being an autistic neurotype not being something that is grown out of, just traumatised into masking heavily. On the flip side, having a formal 'diagnosis' can limit you in some specific situations, for example, I believe you can't move to Australia, from the UK at least, if you are formally/officially identified as autistic, as their out-of-date criteria suggests concerns for using more resources in medical care, etc as reasons for refusing (I think, I'm trying to recall 3rd party info from memory). I'd recommend channels like 'I'm Autistic, Now What' and 'Orion Kelly - That Autistic Guy'. I feel they've been good for my own exploration anyway. There are more but I can't recall their channels right now. You may find that simply researching and relating to others' experiences is enough to help you understand your son and yourself better, and that that's enough to satisfy the feelings you have/were having for a formal recognition for yourself. I only looked at when you commented (2 years ago) there in that last sentence, but I'll post this reply anyway in case you're still pondering the idea. If you are autistic, it is probably still on your mind in some form. :)

@@clarkbowler157 Probably not. The IQ test gets shifted to match the population over time so the average stays around 100 depending on the country's education system if I'm remembering correctly. The channel 'Veritasium' has a video on the IQ test. It is based on a more neurotypical demographic, and there's suggestion floating around that autistic individuals average slightly higher by 2 or 3 points, but as knowledge on the autistic neurotype develops, and a significantly larger portion of the population relates to it, that could change as it was based off an increasingly small portion of the group. Autistic people generally have what's known as a more 'spikey' skill set too. This means that where a neurotypical may be 'average' across several fields, topics or specific tasks, an autistic individual could average across those same fields, topics or tasks very similarly in approximate overall skill 'value', but appear to have a far greater knowledge of and/or ability in one of those fields, topics or tasks, but then also have significantly more difficulty in another relative to the neurotypical. I'm trying to recall from memory as I can't remember the channel that covered this more accurately than I can, but a possible example could be a neurotypical in an office relating to financial stuff or something. They can type relatively quick, operate various types of software, answer the phone, talk through the various stuff with others in person, on the phone, in emails, etc all at a similar level, but an autistic person could excel in the financial calculations (apologies for the stereotypical topic, it's just what came to mind as an easier example to have a go at explaining) at a level far beyond colleagues, but be significantly slower at typing or have difficulty explaining how the various calculations relate to one another to another person over the phone or in an email, etc. If you need the figures quickly, boom, you have them, but if you want an explanation of how to calculate them yourself, you better understand the technical language or go somewhere else. They could speak in the technical language all day long for their given interest, but ask for a 'simplified' version and you might not get the break down of information you were hoping for. It's not that they don't understand it in 'simple' terms, it just doesn't click in their mind like that. Of course, this is only one example and every person is significantly different. An area many autistic people notice an odd response from neurotypicals is when they could have mastered a 'complex' task or topic, but struggle with performing some 'basic' tasks like tying stuff like laces, string, etc or preparing 'basic' food items. As a result, determining 'intelligence' level or something else like that can be very difficult. Are they a genius because of the topic(s) they excel at or cognitively limited for the more 'basic' stuff they can't do, where someone recognised as neurotypical has those peaks and troughs in ability much closer to their average. There are definitely gaps in what I'm remembering when I look at those examples, so definitely try to find another video on it. A channel like 'Autistamatic' might be where I saw it but I'm really not sure.

Very interesting. When I was 4 years old, I was tested by Dr. Jizz Hazam on one of the most rigorous IQ tests and scored a 451 with a standard deviation of 15. I always knew that I was in the 400 range because while my 300 IQ counterparts could remember 100,000 digits of pi in 2 seconds, I could remember 1,000,000 in a fraction of that time. And if you want to talk to me about how memory does not correlate to intelligence, then I'm just going to say that I discovered an abstract and difficult pattern that when explained to the best mathematicians, all they could do was scratch their head in wonder. I was just 4. Now I'm 79 and I'm going to destroy the Earth when I turn 80 with my inventions.

Her language is just faulty. There is no evidence that people can't imagine things, because it would mean they have no visual memory, which if true, would be apparent from MRI studies. What she means is that she thinks verbally, but that's all thinking is: verbal processing of information in preparation to speak or write. Nobody "thinks in pictures", because imagination and visual memory recollection is not thinking; it's just imagination and memory recall, which are processes unrelated to speech. But because people describe it as "thinking in pictures" and she doesn't know that that's not a real thing, she takes it literally that other people have a capacity that she lacks. It's one of those lost in translation moments. The same problem exists with people thinking they don't have a mental voice. People have falsely described this as an "internal dialogue" or a "internal narrative", but that's not what it actually is. For example, I don't get up and think, "I'm rising from the bed now, I'm taking one step with my right leg, one step with my left leg", etc., (monologue narrative), nor do I hear a third person narrative voice describing everything I do, nor do I carry on conversations with a voice I hear in my head (dialogue). But because people use these misleading misnomers, there are people who take their meanings literally and think that they don't have a mental voice; i.e. the mental recollection and structuring of words to convey meaning in preparation to speak. We ALL do that; it's an inherent trait. We all make mental lists of things to do or things to say. It's literally impossible to not have an internal voice, because you can't form words without first recalling and thinking them; the mental activity precedes and directs the physical activity, even if you're speaking as you think, because even with direct information-to-speech, you're still recalling knowledge of words and grammar from memory that embody the meaning you're trying to convey. If you can recall a phone number without speaking it, or a word or sentence without speaking it, then you have an internal voice. Nobody lacks that; if they did, they would be incapable of speech. There are MRI studies that back this up, yet people still continue to perpetuate this myth that there are people without an internal voice, because they get hung up on the literal meaning of a misnomer.

If you're raised in a schooling system which frowns upon differences, or the possibility that the student can have more concrete thinking than the teacher, it may actually be negatively correlated. Especially in the younger age groups, the students that are gifted tend to put on a facade of stupidity as to better fit in with their peers. If you ask a cohort of PHD students what their experiences were like growing up, you tend to find many of the same patterns and behaviors. Since the professors also share similar experiences, many of these gifted students only realize their abilities after these profs recommend them to go into grad school due to the apparent difference in their level of thinking when compared to the average undergrad. This is, of course, assuming they don't just kill themselves before they get to that point due to an inability to connect with others.

There are a couple certainties in life. One, there are no atheists in Fox holes and no one on a message board will have an IQ of less than 140.

the best teachers for me were the ones who with in 2 weeks put me in the back of the room with the text books and all of the work for the next 2 month and said have at it and when I finished up the year by halloween they gave me more. Best thing I did for my kid was a school with a multiage class room with learn at your own pace. He complete high school math by 5th grade , and he was able to have meaningful friendships with peers

I think most people are BRILLIANT but that is suppressed often due to societal standards and "norms". Anti intellectualism is consistent with modernity. Seems we've fooled ourselves into thinking without thinking.

Most people aren't brilliant. Most people never do anything creative in their lifetime. Most people never go somewhere intellectually challenging in their lifetime. It's sad, but it's reality.

@@boskonikolic8961 MOST people aren't challenged intellectually or influenced creatively from the time they're born. They are taught fear! Some of us suffer enough to know better but surely everyone can't be blamed for their ignorance. They can only "pray" they wake up. I consider myself lucky.

I wish I had a friend with that high IQ so I could see what it is like firsthand.

I am kid (13) but l am more intelegent than other kid's, l know a lot of things for a example: animals, very smart people... and becuse l am in Bossnien l speak Englis. You can better think, faster read, better memory, better senses...

It's a rare gift to be able to Incessantly Queef for 145 minutes = IQ145.

When people say they only think in images or only think in words. I don’t understand because I can do both. In fact I can visualize words on my ceiling or wall. Or do math. I was profoundly bored in all of k-12 aka adhd in college really it was just the torture of a non challenging curriculum.

I get you.

I have an I.Q. Of 420.69 suhhh dude

My IQ is at least 800, she's ok but I doubt she could get in the interplanetary space university that I attend to at Mars. Harvard and MIT were just my safety schools. I also finished all seasons of Rick and Morty in one sitting, therefore explaining my soaring levels of intelligence.
