This is actually good news. Let's say, for the moment, that the IQ scores come back showing a nice bright girl who has plenty of company at grade level - well then in that case the IQ result won't be helpful in getting a subject acceleration, but might be helpful chosing the right path.

But she didn't say "No - IQ tests never help!" So I think she is signalling that they are open to looking at the IQ test.

It might be good to try asking 'Are there any testers around here who are particularly good at explaining to parents what all those numbers mean?'

because you would like to ask: 'Are there any testers around here that you would believe if the results came back unusually high?'
