Test of Variable Attention (TOVA-8)
(Mean=100, Standard Deviation=15)
Inattention: standard score = 60
Impulsivity: standard score = 58
AD/HD score: -5.87
Student was 7y0m when tested, 7y 10 m now. Has problems being accepted by age group peers at school, the usual for AD/HD. Since the test has been done, student�s mathematical prowess seems to have increased based on the software they have our child use.
There are no pullout programs at school even though she seems talented at math. She knew times tables (to 10) before entering 2nd grade, and the extra math she gets is in the form of software, no extra teaching. Based on the software, she's done with 2nd grade math and halfway through 3rd and part of 4th.
Child is being treated for the AD/HD with typical medicine and is responding extremely well.
Is our child gifted or is she just good at math?
What in the heck is her GAI? Do the variations in the lower battery of scores not allow calculation of GAI?
Is some math-based franchise (i.e. Mathnasium) a good idea?
I�ve read and have been told that our student�s scores are artificially lowered because of the AD/HD and after meds, the scores would increase especially in the working memory and processing speed. Should we have out student retested to try and get our student into T/G classes while on meds?
Should we have our student tested again to reevaluate intelligence to maybe get into a better program?
Any comments would be welcomed, and thank you.
We are simply struggling to do right by our kid. And I have to say, our kid is simply awesome.
