I discussed a 504 plan with the school psych and she claims DD doesn't need one because she is clearly doing just fine in school (never mind the fact that she is incredibly SLOW if her meds are not just right) and the only issue with her is the CogAt which they are willing to work around without a 504. I just don't understand why she is pushing this Weschler non-verbal test which looks just as bad as the CogAT. I don't know whether to push the issue with her or just say "forget it" and get outside testing. How much does that cost, if I just got a WISC? And would a WISC be the best test to give a kid with ADHD?
Oh, also, the district gifted coodinator (who is gone now) told me last spring that DD can not take the CogAT untimed, but she CAN take another test, like a normal IQ test. But she said that she is not a psych or testing expert and would leave that to the school psych. She made a note in DD's file that she needs a different test than the CogAT.
