My third grader just received a 98 core score on the Iowa tests.
He scored 99 in math catagories, but scored a 55 in punctuation.
He says he's bored in class because the teacher repeats things over and over.

I don't want to put him in a program that he is not qualified for.
I also don't want him wasting any special abilities.
He has two older brothers they attend a very competitive High School.
One of them also had similar Iowa scores yet has average SAT scores.
Did we Err in not pursuing an advanced program for him?
Thank you.

What do we do?
