But yet, I'm still too cheap to go see Deborah Ruf who is right down the road. wink Maybe one of these days. I'm keeping my eyes open for a more reasonable assessment/testing too. Or maybe we'll wait and just do a test like the EXPLORE and see how we fare there.


Long ago, I asked this question on this very forum: is my child Verbal or VS? I think I've decided that he's just really, really smart, so he can work either way, depending on the context.

To hear him, you'd swear he's verbal. His reading is much more advanced than his math skills. Yet his approach to things is often VS. So he seems to be both. Maybe yours is similar?

I think with these ridiculously smart kids, they're frequently just "fluent in all languages" when it comes to learning!
