abstract = "A student at a university, let us call him John, was always the first to answer questions posed by the teacher. Problems that took 15 minutes for his peers to solve took him a split second. John attended all compulsory lectures, but he did not do all compulsory tasks and hence did not pass the course. He was always late and not very focused on the course, other than on occasional problems posed by his teacher. He saw mathematical relations but was not particularly interested in the university setting and he did not adjust to it which led him to fail the course. He was clearly mathematically gifted, and a creative thinker in his ability to see solutions to problems quickly, but in the course statistics, he would be regarded a low achieving student. This conflicting scenario leads to several questions.",
