thanks for responding.
The limited GT services (which don't start until next year) are based on MAP so not a worry.
We are trying to untangle accommodations needed, which I argue included accelerated work in his classroom, to address ADHD behaviors that emerge when he is bored. So yes because he is 2E.
The school basically thinks that the gap in his in classroom achievement and his stated IQ means that the IQ must have been inflated based on this idea that WPPSI may inflate based on home env, although there haven't been any actual studies that document this (as has occurred for the Flynn effect). I wish I'd thought to bring up the MAP test as that clearly can't be inflated.
However, I really didn't argue with them about it because I actually want the retesting esp. the Woodcock Johnson. His subscores on the WPPSI included Block design 17 Matrix reasoning 17 and Vocab 18 while untreated for ADHD (still not on meds using CBT therapies to treat). They gave him the test as fast as they could to accomodate his ADHD but I'm curious to see how he does now that he is older and able to focus better.
I also wondering if I should ask for a GAI as well as FSIQ because he has ADHD? Any thoughts on that?
Again thanks for replying
