The tests administered in a neuropsych eval and psycho-educational eval overlap. In many cases, the test battery is identical.

In my experience, psycho-educational evaluations will provide you with better information regarding school issues and recommendations.

Both types of evaluators will be able to administer the appropriate tests. The personality of the evaluator makes a difference. Looks for someone who ENJOYS working with children and takes time to establish rapport.

Poor rapport=underestimation of potential.
