(I am so glad that things have changed. In 1963, when I was labeled a "gifted student" things were not great. I took part in one of the first studies on this. Half the chosen went to live in dorms at university at 15, the rest stayed in local schools with added support. Guess which cohort succeeded? Yep not mine. University at 15 fucked me up.)

@corlin They let me finish all my HS classes early because I was so bored, then I spent a year in HS doing band 6 hours, gym, and senior English because I wasn’t 18.
During my junior and senior years I took required classes (american government, etc) in the morning and college classes in the afternoon (the early entry program at NMU allowed us to start when we were 17).
