I've been calling around, and everyone I have spoke with says a different thing and has a different price. My DD is five years two months and very strong in verbal skills, with an amazing memory, is very good at drawing, would do well with an information type subtest, and has a good spatial sense.
I've heard that the Stanford-Binet favors spatial skills and the WISC favors highly verbal skills. Is this true? The latest tester I spoke with suggested the DAS. Would this be a good fit and does that test carry as much weight as the other two? That tester is much less expensive, but doesn't specialize in the gifted and usually works with learning disabled kids. Do I really need to see someone who works primarily with gifted kids to be able to understand and test her accurately? TIA
