I will gladly keep you posted. We had our son tested because we were planning to enroll him in a school where he would need to prove an iq over 130 if he wanted to do more advanced work. In the end we changed our minds and he will be attending a small, Montessori-type school where some of his classmates will be 7 and 8. They won't be able to accelerate him, but they are very flexible and don't use worksheets or textbooks. Let's see how it works...
Anyway, even though we had him tested for educational purposes, for us it had the positive side-effect of confirming our suspicions. Before having the test results we were always second-guessing ourselves and thinking that perhaps what he was doing was normal after all, so I would say testing was useful because it helped us understand what we were dealing with.
