It reads, "At least three of the five scores listed, including the composite score." So would scores in reading, science, and english qualify even if composite and math are below 17 and 16 for 4th graders?

You are right. Only 3 out of 5(4 single sub + composite) is needed for applying for DYS. I was just a little surprised. DS8 came out of the test saying he missed few on reading, math, and english, but probably only got 5 correct out of all the science problems. So I was expecting that he would get reasonable scores except science. According to the offical report, he did best in science, but missed english and reading cutoff by a point each. eek
