The wait interval is for subsequent administrations of the same specific IQ test. It does not preclude IQ testing using other test instruments. If you have a new test administrator, s/he should be made aware of any previous testing and test dates.

sanne asks a very good question and provides excellent advice - begin by knowing what your purpose for testing is.

For example, you mention possible qualification for DYS... you may want to discuss that as a potential goal of testing with your test administrator.

Because you mention a hope of meeting other DYS in your local public school district... Be aware that DYS has a Confidentiality Policy. Some families may wish to keep their child's DYS membership private. Therefore it is possible that you may not meet other DYS in your area... and if you do, you must respect their right to privacy by not making their membership in DYS known to others without their consent.
