DD#2 was tested on the WPPSI. Her profiles are flatter, they are all 15-19 except for one: symbol search is 13.
Achievement testing was done for both. The tester felt that their achievement scores were not as high as they will be once they are in a "more formal academic setting". Both girls attended (DD#2 is still there) a Montessori preschool/kindergarten. DD#1 is now in first grade at a private school. She has really blossomed there. I now feel I need to seriously consider trying to get DD#2 over there. I guess the tale will be told when they take achievemnet tests administered by the school in 3rd grade.
But here is something I really don't have a good grasp on: Does having an IQ of 143 really mean anything (other than the obvious.....smart kid)? Is there anything I should be doing???
Or should I let her lead the way?
In reading other posts and thinking about my own experience, I realize you cannot trust the schools to do what is best or to even know what is best.
