I'm so sorry to hear that pinkpanther! How disappointing. Since the entire kindergarten class took it last year at our school, I know several who have very bright, verbal kids who did not make the cut at our school either. Even kids who were reading ahead of DS at that point last year. I hope the back door works for you somehow!
I do often wonder how DS would do on a full WISC or the like. DS is verbally strong, but not necessarily hit the ceiling of the test strong like he is with patterns, math, relations, etc...
Let us know how it goes! I think it's a great idea to try the SB too if you can. At least you'll get a bigger picture.
