I've seen various definitions of what the numbers mean, so the "PG label" seems to depend to a certain degree upon who you ask and what test was used.
For us, the reason for testing our DC was ALL about access to the resources. Testing in our schools is somewhat inevitable, anyway, if you have a high achiever who needs more challenging classes. If you do not consent to testing, your child does not get an opportunity to be considered for G&T classes, as achievement is only one factor. Also, applying for resources like DYS is easier with testing in hand.
As parents, we literally had the opposite situation - placement and access to resources depended almost entirely on achievement. Therefore, we were never tested.
