Hi LinCO,
Thanks for responding as both a mom and an evaluator.
I thought the tester chose a test that went up to third or fourth grade so I guess she assumed that a preschooler wouldn't need to go beyond that. I sure hope she didn't pick a test that had a second grade ceiling. That would have been way too low.
She already had that IQ test at three and that is also above what is needed for a gifted program, but for a variety of reasons, we didn't think that he truly captured her profile at that age and that it was an underestimate, and perhaps she felt she needed more support. Apparently she already wrote up the report and so I am guessing she won't want to do any testing.
Oh, LinCo, are the results valid if a child is given a test that starts at age 6 when they are four years 10 months? How can you calculate their score?
Thanks.
