Hello all,

I'm hoping someone out there knows the answer to my question, or can point me at the right place/person to ask!

On the "Qualification Criteria" for DYS page (http://www.davidsongifted.org/young...holars___Qualification_Criteria_384.aspx ), it says, "At least one of the tests submitted must have been administered no more than two years prior to the application date." Does anyone know if this is true for all kids, including those who apply to DYS at age five?

I ask because our son took the KTEA-II when he was 4.5 (and received DYS-qualifying scores), and we'd love to not have to test with (and pay for!) the WIAT on top of that. In addition, it will be more convenient for him to take an IQ test prior to his fifth birthday - but we don't want to do that if the timing wouldn't qualify for DYS.

Anyway, before we schedule further testing, I want to make sure that it's ok for a five-year old applicant to use testing from when he was 4 years 6 months and older.

Thanks!
