    Thank you admin for providing an access to this wonderful forum!

    We are first time parents residing near Seattle and have several questions for our LO's school admissions for Kindergarten. One of them being "IQ Testing"

    We have received following list of testers in and around "Seattle" and are unsure which one to go with. We would highly appreciate if someone could PM with their past experiences with any of these!

    We used Belle Chenault for DD's first IQ test, which we needed to apply to Open Window. She was fine for basic IQ testing - warm and friendly with DD, and I think she got DD to show her stuff adequately. (DD nevertheless did not get into Open Window, but that's separate from the IQ testing, and I don't think Belle's report had any bearing on that.) If you suspect a 2E issue or something, you'll probably want an accredited neuropsych.
