    Kids at the top end can be quite a bit different from moderately gifted kids,
    but IQ is not a linear scale. The "difference between IQs" has a very
    different interpretation in different parts of the scale, so don't try
    generalizing from the bottom end to see what happens at the top end---it
    doesn't work.

    Try to find out where kids are in each subject and meet them there. Their
    abilities may be quite different in different subjects, and hey may fly through
    some material faster than you can provide it while seeming to dawdle and fall
    behind the rest of the group on other material. Don't expect uniformity
