Lucounu -- thanks for the info! Glad to hear that this is pretty much within rage for school criteria. I thought I read (possibly here?) that many school (or at least some) schools accept a 95th percentile on the MAP tests as entrance? So, it seemed to me that would be a lower threshold?

Anyway, I guess we'll know soon enough!

Bzylzy -- Ha, ha! smile You've really helped me today -- while I wait -- thanks for the positive encouragement. And maybe you'll be right? We have all the evidence she's gifted, all the signs since a very young age, and very high MAP scores. She's been pulled out for gifted the past two years -- under a "phase 2 intervention" -- meaning, they are looking at her. And that is very rare especially in kindergarten. But they prefer to test in late 2nd to mid 3rd grade and we just didn't want to wait that long. smile

So we'll see!!!
