It will be interesting if behavior improves when summer vaca comes. That will lead to school being the issue. Good luck! Keep us posted about your younger dd. Congrats on older dd flourishing!

Yes, I have heard many anecdotes of gifted kids doing poorly on CogAt. Happy for your child that you got some answers! Thank you for sharing your experience.
