Where and how do they certify “gifted”?
Basically an extended IQ test, back then this was done at the local university, probably by some psychologist.
I'm not entirely sure in how far these tests have changed over time and how different they are from adult IQ tests. I definitely remember a longer interview with someone, which isn't part of a regular test, I think.
For example, a gifted student would probably know how to use Google
The person I was replying to knows how to use Google.
