[quote:Anonymous Coward 863003:MV85NjMyNjNfMTUwMjA0MzNfODBDRDFDQjQ=] [quote:nanuke] Yes, we were bussed to schools outside of our own district. We were given many different types of puzzles. After a while they would stop giving us a variety of puzzles and have us focus on one type. My specialty was determined to be elimination logic puzzles. We were a very small group of children, less than 10 in all. From the entire area. These tests continued for perhaps two or three quarters. It was a search that was conducted by Ludens. Ludens children were placed amongst other children for this purpose. that was funny. seriously though. did any of you start off in montessouri schools for early education? (pre-k, kindergarden?) just curious. we were bussed from far away and i lived right behind an elementary school i could have gone to. my neighbors never understood why we did that. [/quote] Pre-K was not common when I was a child. I did attend kindergarten, which is a German word meaning "Children's Garden". Very strange that we use this word eh? The children that lived adjacent to my school were not allowed to attend it. In turn we were taken from that school to a school 1 hour away. Very strange times those were. Does anyone remember the shape games? While everyone else was trying to figure out which hole to put the square in, we were doing these: http://ursispaltenstein.ch/blog/images/uploads_img/game_shape_inlay.jpg [/quote]

Were you ever removed, many times, from your regular class for "testing"?
Were you shown a series of high speed images on a television, not once, but many times?
Was the school psychologist selectively interested in you?
