I was in gifted classes in Australia when I was young. I don’t remember most of what they had us doing though (it could’ve covered entirely different ground to the US). I remember at one point they gave us a text-based IQ test and I went rogue with my answers on it (as I tended to do sometimes at that age). Like I knew the correct answers but I chose different ones instead because I was a show-off and the answers had other information.
I was taken out of the class after that. They were still considering skipping me ahead a year at one point, but decided not to. Maybe failing that IQ test was a blessing in disguise. I am actually an astral projector (without using the Monroe Institute’s materials).

Was it around the same time the CIA found those crashed UFOs and UFO footages?
