The idea
Giftedness is generally defined by intelligence scores at the far upper end of the distribution, often with additional criteria.
In practice
Longitudinal studies of high scorers found broadly successful adult outcomes and wide individual variation.
Where people slip
High scores predict group averages, not individual trajectories. The variation within the group is large.
