Thanks.
The reason I ask is because my son's school administered this test to him a couple months ago as part of his IEP triennial review, but they broke it up into half hour intervals over several (non-consecutive) days. I was never told this test was being conducted, and he was pulled out of class for each testing session. The psychologist indicated that there were a few days when he complained of being tired and was reluctant to leave his class, which may have affected his performance. At least once, he had to miss part of recess as a result of the testing, which also made him unhappy.
He scored just under the cusp to qualify for the Davidson Young Scholars program, so I was wondering if it was worth pursuing having him retested? If his test was representative of how they are typically conducted, I'm happy to let it be and consider his results accurate. But if there is a chance that a more clinically compliant evaluation would yield more accurate scores, I might be interested in requesting a reassessment.
Thanks again!
