> The standard way to get into these high schools, by the way, starts at age 5, when you take your kid down to IIT and graduate psychology students administer a pseudo-IQ test.

In my experience it starts a year or two before that when you spend 5 figures per year on a private preschool that will prepare them for the pseudo-IQ test. (Better that than paying for private K-12!)
