I would agree that waiting would be prudent. As someone who's been on the other side of the table, I can give some perspective. Especially in high-performing districts, one frequently hears from parents asking for previews of testing results for gifted eligibility, sometimes so they can lean on the process when their kids don't qualify. ("The tester told me he did exceptionally well on the test, so you have to admit him.") Examiners are almost always cautioned (or learn from bitter experience) not to indicate one way or the other until the whole selection process is complete, to limit attempts by parents to game/pressure the system. She might think privately that he's a shoo-in, but if she's wise, she won't say anything about it to you. Hence the party line about multiple sources of assessment data (probably a state requirement, btw). You can't make any inferences about his eligibility for GT programming based on what she says to you.

With regard to the 2e aspect of the evaluation, you have a right to request an independent educational evaluation (or the district can offer additional testing) if you are not satisfied with the results of the evaluation. So no, the process is not over. Also, the prior written notice for the evaluation should have included a list or description of the types of assessments to be conducted. If it did not, then there are due process violations. You may wish to check your paperwork to be sure.
