    Picture in the paper sounds great! Of course if it came with the scores it would have been much better. I cannot believe that they have let you wait for so long. Grr.

    I go away for a few days, and this thread is now 27 pages! shocked You guys are cracking me up!

    Dottie, that is so crazy about the Explore scores. I would be ... certifiable at this point. crazy I hope they come TODAY, with the SAT scores!

    ps: we should start a new post for the March DYS waitees, otherwise this thread could easily make it to 50 pages.

    50? We have 100 as a goal!

    Come on, everyone! If we pull together with all the goofy and pointless comments we can think of, I know we can do it!

    wink grin

    P.S. In a more serious tone, a new thread sounds fine to me. smile

    Hi Dottie,

    So what did your DS8 think about the SATs? In particular the math sections? I'm curious because ever since you started toying with the idea, I thought maybe for DS9? I dunno. Just because I'm curious I don't want to push him too hard and get him turned off. Anyway, I was curious what your son said about it.

    Wow, Dottie, that's amazing! It's amazing he did so well since he was sick!
    Besides the fact that the Explore scores must be walking to your house all on their own, what do you think about that testing process?
    Do you think we should consider having DD8 take it in the fall?
    She did say she loved, loved, loved taking the WIAT and asked for more testing, which I consider very odd, by the way!

    Wow Dottie - that's amazing! Especially for a sick boy - poor guy. Glad you got some results anyway.

    I'm sure you'll see the horses pulling up TODAY with those EXPLORE scores. wink
