Interesting. CA GATE has little/no effect other than pulling me out of class to arrange triangles with a timer. The public high school I attended offered most AP classes (but was otherwise under-resourced), around ~15 perfect SAT-I results, and ~25 full scholarships to Ivy League schools per year. Not as fancy as a room full of IITians, but almost. Maybe there was some purpose for the G&T program other than bureaucratic pyramid-building or the specter of inventorying possibly intelligent people. Oh yeah, and I was bullied in middle school by a math teacher who encouraged the class to bully me as well who seemed to be offended at having a student added to her class. |
