So... I got the results a couple of weeks ago, and am not sure what to make of them!

They did the following:

CogAT, TerraNova Achievement and Renzulli-Hartman Teacher Rating Scale. These are this scores:

CogAT (they wanted >116)
Verbal - 110
Quantitative - 111
Nonverbal - 129 (qualifying score)

TerraNova Achievement (they wanted > 89%)
Reading - 87
Math - 82
(no qualifying scores - this is what kept him out of the program)

Renzulli-Hartman (they wanted >107)
Learning, Motivation, Creativity & Leadership combined score - 73.

That he obviously didn't qualify, but the test scores I turned in (NNAT, last years CogAT & the WISC) covered that section of the scoring.

Does anyone know anything about the TerraNova test? I am going to do some google research, but I'm wondering if his scores are close enough (combined with all previous achievement testing we have) to lobby he be allowed in anyway. I really want the differentiation formalized for him, like he'd get in this program. I am not overly concerned, honestly, about the special projects or the label.
