1. Under achievers
2. Gifted students
3. Learning abled
4. Low achievers
5.

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 1 : Under achievers

Under Achievers:

• An underachiever is a person who fails to achieve their potential or does not do as well as expected by their peers.
• Out of particular interest is academic underachievement.
• Studies of individuals who have not realized their apparent potential have identified learning disabilities, ADHD, and many other educational problems, and subsequently enabled methods of addressing these problems.
• Current theories among academic scholars prefer to address underperformance problems with remedial help.
• The term is also used more generally; for example, a sports team that contains many star players but still loses games against teams with relatively little obvious talent might be termed underachieving.
• In the example given above, the learners have a high IQ, which implies that the learner has more than average reasoning and problem-solving skills.
• This means that the person should automatically perform better in Mathematics.
• However, the statement says that the person achieves low in Mathematics. 

Hence, the correct answer is Underachievers.
