I think your ideas about what a certain age can do are heavily skewed by the overall state of your area's education.

- casion 5y agoYou're absolutely correct, but it proves my point. I taught in a state that's consistently rated in the top 5 for public education. The specific institution I worked at was a private school with admissions tests well above the public curriculum. When I worked in lower grades, the children were not particularly gifted, but they were among the top for their age/grade in the US.
