I didn't think it helped me much in 1st year - I still just wanted to party and slay chicks. Lots of success on the former, only moderate success on the latter.
As for gifted shit - I think it's mostly bunk. I've met maybe one or two people in my life that I would consider gifted. The rest of the people just want to humble brag about their kid who is actually probably just one standard deviation higher IQ.
