On behalf of my sister, her DD clearly has some sort of language /reading comprehension issues that have never been concretely identified on testing other than she tested average IQ despite her very bright nature /advanced math ability and brother /mother who are both MG.

However, as a very driven child, she maintained straight A's last year in school, as she has learned to compensate for her struggles. She will be in 9th grade this year. Should her parents attempt to pursue further testing to accurately define the hidden LD, or is it moot since she is do motivated to compensate ? I worry about the increased pace and abstraction in high school for her.
