The plot revolves around Donovan Curtis, a troublemaker who gets wrapped up in a major prank gone wrong. Due to an accident caused by the superintendent, Donovan gets sent to the Academy of Scholastic Distinction (ASD), a school for gifted and talented students. The rest of the novel is spent on Donovan avoiding being caught while helping the students of ASD through his own special gifts. Donovan avoids getting caught by driving the class robot (shown on cover) and providing a teacher (his pregnant sister Katie) for Human Growth and Development class, of which the students of ASD lacked, to prevent them from having to attend summer school.

Key Information

A sequel, Supergifted, was released January 2, 2018. As of 2021, a television series adaptation is currently in the works and will air on Nickelodeon.[1]

Plot

[edit]

Donovan Curtis considers himself ungifted (the opposite of gifted), instead being a prankster and troublemaker. One day, one of his pranks goes too far when he strikes a school statue of Atlas which disrupts an ongoing basketball game. Although no one is injured, the gym is destroyed, with repairs for the damage that was done to the gym being prohibitively expensive due to the statue’s foundry having gone out of business. The district superintendent, Dr. Schultz, who was at the game, catches Donovan red-handed. However, after he jots down Donovan's name, he accidentally adds it to a list of candidates for the Academy for Scholastic Distinction (ASD), a school for extremely gifted students.

Donovan expects the mishap and his escape from punishment will eventually be discovered and feels that he will cause more stress to his already stressed household. His older sister, Katie, is currently staying with them and is seven months pregnant. Katie's husband Brad is a Marine who is deployed in Afghanistan. Adding to the pressure, Katie's mother-in-law leaves Brad's dog, Beatrice, who seems to be ill (but was later revealed to be pregnant) and only takes a liking to Donovan. However, after Donovan learns of the error that is sending him to ASD, he is filled with joy by the mistake.

On his first day, Donovan meets his classmates, and while some seem to be annoyed by him (in particular, a girl named Abigail Lee) some take a liking to him, especially Chloe, a girl interested in normal things. While Donovan continues to hide in the academy, his teachers wonder if he really is gifted. Donovan joins Robotics, a class taught by his homeroom teacher Mr. Osborne ("Mr. Oz"), who are preparing for a robotics tournament. Donovan helps give their robot a name: Tin Man Metallica SquarePants. Donovan introduces his classmate Noah Youkilis, a skinny boy with a high IQ (206), to YouTube which proves to be addictive to Noah. Donovan also impresses his classmates by showing his talent controlling the robot with a joystick.

Eventually, Donovan learns his classmates will have to go to summer school for failing to take Human Growth and Development. To help them, he convinces his sister to teach his classmates, which eventually gets approved. Later, during a school dance at the academy, Donovan's Hardcastle friends, the two Daniels (Daniel Sanderson and Daniel Nussbaum), steal the robot. However, one of the perpetrators is thrashed by Noah, who had learned of professional wrestling via YouTube.

A little bit later, Donovan is told to go to the library to take a test, to which he feels nervous because if he fails it he could be kicked out. However, while taking the test, Donovan discovers that someone had hacked the computer and was taking the test for him. For this Ms. Bevelaqua interviews Donovan's classmates about the test. While interviewing Noah Youkilis she says that they could get expelled for cheating on the test, to Noah’s happiness as he doesn’t like being at ASD and would prefer to be at a normal school.

Later, as the team prepares for the robotics tournament, Dr. Schultz finds a video from Noah's YouTube channel "Youkilicious" and recognizes Donovan as the boy who destroyed the gym. He goes to Academy to Donovan's classroom and tells him that he's been expelled. Back at Hardcastle, Donovan begins to feel depressed and filled with guilt. Meanwhile, Chloe feels distraught and skips school to try and find him. There, she runs in the Daniels, whom she manages to convince to find Donovan and bring him to the tournament.

Later, on the day of the tournament, Donovan is taken out of school by the Daniels and Katie. There, he watches the ASD control Tin Man, though he doesn’t participate until Cold Spring Harbor (one of the opponent schools) attempts to cheat by shoving Tin Man with their robot. Angry, Donovan runs down to the ASD and takes over control, using Tin Man to assault Cold Spring Harbor’s robot, with Noah using a chair to crash down. In the chaos, Katie suddenly goes into labor.

Later at the hospital, Dr. Schultz reveals that ASD and Cold Spring had been disqualified, with a different school taking the trophy. However, ASD's team doesn’t care; they are more overjoyed over Cold Spring Harbor’s defeat. Katie’s baby is revealed to be a girl, overjoying Noah as he had predicted the baby would be male and is happy to be wrong for once. Schultz also counts the hospital visit as Human Growth and Development hours, saving the ASD class from summer school.

Soon, Donovan is surprised to see Noah at Hardcastle, and is shocked to hear that Noah took the blame for hacking his test and was expelled; the true culprit was Abigail Lee, who did it out of gratitude.

Noah and Donovan continue to take the ASD robotics class after school, working on a new robot they call “Heavy Metal”. The book ends with Donovan reflecting over the whole experience, saying that people who attended the tournament might question who caused the ASD robot’s rampage, adding that he’ll always know that it was him and “you don’t have to be gifted to know that”.

Characters

Donovan Curtis serves as the of Ungifted, a 13-year-old seventh grader characterized by his , street smarts, and tendency toward , often struggling with academic performance while excelling in practical, real-world problem-solving. Despite exhibiting ADHD-like traits that lead to frequent trouble, his arc involves cultivating and discovering personal worth beyond pranks, particularly as he navigates an unfamiliar environment. Donovan's relationships with authority figures and peers highlight his resourcefulness, as he supports his family and integrates into new social circles. Among the gifted students at the Academy for Scholastic Distinction, Noah Youkilis stands out as a prodigy and arguably the group's most intellectually brilliant member, though his social awkwardness contributes to initial isolation. Garfinkle, who forms a close alliance with , and Lee, known for her pride in her intelligence and occasional judgmental demeanor, each possess niche talents that underscore their early detachment from typical peer interactions. Antagonistic elements arise from school officials like Superintendent Dr. Schultz and ASD Principal Mr. Del Rio, who enforce strict policies in response to disruptions.

Themes and Analysis

Intelligence and Giftedness

In Ungifted, Gordon Korman critiques traditional IQ-based gifted programs by portraying protagonist Donovan Curtis, an average student with low academic aptitude, as possessing intuitive creativity and leadership skills that rival the "book smarts" of his high-IQ classmates at the Academy for Scholastic Distinction (ASD). Korman draws from his observations during school visits, noting that while gifted students excel in certain areas, they may lag in social or practical domains, and an "ungifted" outsider like Donovan can introduce balance by encouraging relaxation and real-world engagement. This setup challenges the narrow definition of intelligence tied to standardized tests, highlighting how administrative errors—such as Donovan's accidental placement—expose the limitations of such systems. A key example is the ASD's robotics club, where the gifted students' theoretical designs for their , Tin Man, falter in practice, but Donovan's hands-on problem-solving—such as improvising fixes when motors fail—propels the team toward success in competition. This contrast underscores Donovan's practical ingenuity over the academics' abstract knowledge, ultimately fostering and demonstrating that often requires blending diverse sets. The also dismantles of gifted children as socially isolated or , showing characters like Youkilis evolving through exposure to Donovan's impulsive energy, which humanizes their brilliance and reveals emotional depths beyond IQ scores. The book engages broader implications in the debate, presenting Donovan's impulsivity not as a flaw but as an innate talent that thrives in unstructured environments, while the gifted students' growth depends on nurturing real-world applications to complement their nurtured academic strengths. candidates analyzing the have noted how this reflects giftedness as a developmental influenced by environment and expectations, rather than solely genetic factors. Korman's intent, informed by real-world dynamics, emphasizes diverse intelligences—implicitly aligning with Gardner's , which posits abilities like interpersonal and kinesthetic skills as valid forms of talent alongside linguistic and logical ones.

Social Dynamics and Growth

In Ungifted, the social structures of Hardcastle Middle School and the Academy of Scholastic Distinction starkly contrast, with Hardcastle embodying a rowdy, prank-filled environment where students like Donovan Curtis navigate hierarchies based on mischief and group loyalty, while the Academy fosters a competitive, intellectually isolated culture among gifted elites who prioritize academic excellence over interpersonal bonds. This divide underscores the novel's exploration of inclusivity, as Donovan's accidental placement at the Academy bridges these worlds, challenging the gifted students' insular dynamics and introducing a more egalitarian approach to collaboration. Teacher candidates analyzing the book noted how such separations exacerbate social stigmas, advocating for integrated models to mitigate among gifted youth. Friendship arcs in the story particularly highlight the robotics team's transformation from fragmented cliques of theorists—where interactions are limited by academic focus and social awkwardness—to a cohesive, supportive unit that thrives on mutual vulnerabilities revealed during events like school dances and competitions. Donovan's influence fosters these bonds, as his peers, including and , begin to value emotional openness alongside intellectual pursuits, evolving from isolated individuals to empathetic collaborators who defend shared secrets and celebrate collective successes. This progression emphasizes empathy as a for growth, with the team learning to handle ethical dilemmas, such as concealing school irregularities, through trust rather than competition. Personal growth emerges as characters redefine popularity and identity beyond traditional labels, with gifted students like acquiring that humanize their prodigious talents, while tempers his by embracing ethical responsibility and collaborative over solitary pranks. The narrative critiques the pressure of "gifted" or "troublemaker" labels on middle schoolers, showing how they constrain personal until disrupted by cross-group interactions that prioritize and over individual achievement. Ultimately, this humanization arc illustrates collaboration's role in fostering , as seen in the team's redefined success metrics centered on relational support rather than accolades.
