I'd like suggestions as to various activities that challenge a Gifted child's critical thinking skills; complex but entertaining at the same time. Can anyone direct me to any resources in particular that can give me some ideas? Thanks!

Can someone who's really passionate about math and not too brilliant in the subject still succeed in her math career, academically and professionally?
I need to decide if I should pursue my passion or give it up before I transfer to UCSD as a math major.
Thank you!

The saint idols looked alive and realistic. The eyes of the Virgin Mary statue look vibrant with its blue green shade. The cross where Jesus is crucified looks like a real human. Everything in that chapel looks like a living creature.

today we took our exams for history (8th grade) and i did all of the work, followed all the directions, and it took me most of the hour. but "i guess" the each test was different and had a number, so no one would cheat, and you were supposed to right the number on the answer sheet. i had nooo clue about that, so i didnt right it. i turned it in and later on he said "are you going to put the number on the paper" i had no clue what he was talking about, so i said " ummm i dont know???" and he acted as if i was retarded and he said, uhhhhhh whatever i guess you want to fail. and he gave me an F.
