I figure that a strong Math student could be doing Algebra I in 7th or 8th grade. Have you tried him on Algebra? In the end, if he is healtily learning at the rate of a highly gifted kid, then he is a highly gifted kid, no matter what the test scores say.

He is enjoying algebra with his dad.
We took the 3rd grade CTY in November (didn't know you could ask to do higher...) and he missed one in math and two in verbal. So, 99+% of 5th grade. I haven't figured out a way to do the Explore test as it goes through the schools? Is that right? And our local schools (as near as I can tell without asking specifically which I will do) don't do the Explore.
Social cues that he misses are not interrupting either verbally or physically and respecting an orderly progression (like lines for things) that's what I mean by "bubble".
I'm probably way over analyzing this most likely "normal" behavior as he really doesn't exhibit any other truly overt Asperger like traits.
