ds took the DAS first, at 4 1/4 with a private psych, and he took the wppsi the second time at 4 1/2 with the district....his scores the second time were very similar to the first test, a few points higher i think the second time. but both showed the same things- like that he was higher in nonverbal than he was in verbal. my son sounds a lot like your dd in the way of academics. so i also had him take an academic test. he took the YCAT the first time, but the second time he took the woodcock johnson i think. again...the tests were similar....so i don't know that it really mattered what he took. the district did their own testing more out of a move to be controlling and prove he wasn't gifted than a move because they didn't like the first set of tests. their loss. lol. they paid to test him a second time....and in the end still had to admit him to school a year early and give him gifted services. lol.
good luck!
