Haha yes. Also, the elementary school environment is somewhat conducive to social interaction. But once you reach the individual classes of middle school, everything changes. You have to spend time out of class to socialize with people (meanwhile, if you’re in class, you’re simply taking huge amounts of time to learn what you can self-study in a short period of time). And if you’d prefer to study, then you pretty much wouldn’t talk with anyone. Which is why I pretty much find my middle school years to be the most painful parts of my primary education—although being a teacher’s pet/monopolizing class discussions did help engage me a lot in a few classes.
That being said, my last few years would have also been painful if I didn’t drop out for an early entrance program. And my early years would also have been painful if I discovered my drive to learn at an earlier age
