Orson,

I am very new to all of this so I may not be the best person to answer your question, but I'll give it a go!

When I decided to have my son tested, it was because I felt his performance at school did not match his true ability and I wanted "proof" that he was capable of more. I also suspected that he had some issues with learning disabilities...making him twice exceptional. Your son would also be considered twice exceptional because of the giftedness and Aspergers. Anyway, a full psycho-educational assessment by a psychologist that specializes in twice exceptional children would be ideal. This would give you the "proof on paper" that you need to advocate for your child. Twice exceptional children are complicated and I think the more information you have, the more power you have to make sure your child receives the best educational opportunities for him.

Hope this helps.
