Oh wow -- that's crazy, Cricket! I can't believe how many people have similar stories!! And look at all of these smart cookies doing great under difficult circumstances!
Got the results! And talk about unusual circumstances, we were in the car on the way to the children's hospital for an x-ray for my younger daughter who is having GI issues -- so not an emergency, but we had to get there before the end of the day so I was trying to take notes while driving so that was interesting!
Anyway, she qualified!
So I guess her comprehension was low b/c she was really hesitant to warm up and talk much (it was a 10) so she switched to information instead which she said takes more one-word answers and she got a 17. And then her processing was only 97 -- she said just really taking her time and trying to do everything perfectly which she said wasn't uncommon with gifted kids. So, with the two low scores I guess her full scale (is that what it is called?) was 132. Which qualifies, because with the range it still gets to 133. And her GAI (which is also accepted by our district) -- and I am not even really familiar with what that is but she said it was throwing out the slow processing speed since that isn't unusual for gifted kids -- was 146. So she's well within the district standards, and she'll be writing a recommendation as such.
So, whew! I am not even really sure what to think! Happy, of course! Kinda shocked!
