Hmmm... I was thinking of the "Who can participate?" page at the CTY website. The way I read it my son has to score outstanding some other test to be able to register for the SCAT or the SAT through talent search.
I do not understand your ETA comment, but would really like to. Could I give him the test here at home proctored by me and use the scores? Is that how it works? I don't see a way to purchase it on the website I found, is there another way to get it?
Thank you for your help.
Sorry, I thought that you might already have given a "standardized" test at home - I thought that maybe your state required it for homeschoolers. If not, then, yes, you need an outstanding score in a standardized test that CTY accepts. Most homeschoolers I know who want to qualify for CTY buy the ITBS and self administer. I don't know how to do it personally, but the homeschooling forums elsewhere on the internet has a lot of details on how to buy the test and self-administer it.
(There are other options too - the ERB-CTP4 can be taken for a fee at a test center - you might want to call them to find out the details. Or your local school district might let your child take the standardized test along with their students.)
Good luck.
