I was put in GT classes in middle school because I went to a (shitty) private elementary school where every kid went on to GT. Somehow I struggled through GT until those classes weren't offered anymore (sophomore year of high school) and I hated every minute of it and was really bad at what they wanted me to do.

If I could do it over again, I would beg my parents not to put me in GT classes.

When I was a primary school kid we didn't have gifted and talented classes. Kids who were ahead of the class could continue doing more and more advanced maths, move onto the next year's work, though in 6th grade the problems only went up to advanced 6th grade. I don't know what you would do if you were smart but unsatisfied with maths, I guess you'd be disruptive.
