Not all of these are accurate, however, and testing should be administered by a qualified instructor. IQ levels termed as gifted generally begin in the 130's and increase accordingly. There are bright children in the world. Those who learn easily, know most of the answers, love peer friendships, memorize well and are confident in their successes. These are wonderful little beings, however these are not marks of giftedness.
Gifted children are usually markedly different from their peers.
They sometimes do not handle school well, because of their rapid assimilation of information. While most children need several repetitions of facts to remember and understand, a gifted child needs only one or two repetitions . They may intuit answers and make extremely amazing statements at young ages, grasping concepts far beyond their age . Gifted individuals are often extremely concerned with moral issues , perceiving injustice when others do not. A preference for adult conversation over peer relationships, combined with self criticism and a knack for becoming engrossed in a subject to the point of obsession can lead to feelings of isolation .
