Comment on Relationships between Depression and High Intellectual Potential (2012)parent

This seems more common then I thought, because the same thing happened to me in high school. Most teachers thought I was an idiot because I never completed a single homework assignment despite getting high marks on their exams. They held me back in mathematics and wouldn't allow me to enter any honors or AP classes. After many long arguments with the guidance counselor I was able to enter AP Chemistry and AP Computer Science which I passed both with A's. It seemed the only teachers who though I wasn't and idiot at that school were those two AP teachers, go figure.
