How important are the answer to the questions?
DS7 just doesn't seem PG, he's not a self taught math wiz and he doesn't write much.
I just have a hard time thinking that he's really *that* gifted, you know?
Some of the questions sounded to me like, "Has your child cured cancer yet?" or "What is your child's position on the latest international nuclear non-proliferation treaty?"
I had to honestly write, "Nothing like that here, sorry!"
And as for the "exhibiting prodigious talent?" question, I was totally stumped. His scary-skills in reading & language aren't really something that will get him on the Tonight Show, and he's not going to participate in a Math competition @ Berkely anytime soon, either.
So who knows. Although, I am tempted to answer: "Well -- he's only seven, so when he stops teasing his sister, maybe he'll get crackin' on that treaty!")
I got the preliminary WJ-III results right after testing yesterday, but don't get the full report until Tuesday (Stupid Labor Day holiday!) His verbal achievement looks to be as strong as his WISC-IV, but we need the "official" answer before finalizing our application.
Thinking that waiting a whole five hours for his preliminary results on the WJ-III were stressful ('cause it was only a couple of hours on the WISC-IV!)... I imagine the answer from DYS will take a tortuously long time to arrive.
