We had a similar problem with our DD13 when she was in 1st grade. The school seemed to go out of their way to ignore several tests and pick the one where she scored below the qualifying threshold. We ended up have her privately tested with the SB IQ test, where she easily met the criteria and they had to accept hee. Be persistent. She's now in SET and DYS, so I'm pretty sure she was qualified.

At the same time, from an educator/program perspective a score is a score . There has to be an objective criteria somewhere. Admitting when "just one point" away, would mean the cutoff has changed, then two points away is "just one point". Etc.
