Well, *sometimes* they do help! It can take a good bit of hashing out to make sense of it all. And it's just one test on one day, so it's not the be-all, end-all of who a kid is. (And all those other caveats...)
BUT...
Our testing *really* did point us in some right directions that we might not have realized on our own, at least not without a lot more trouble. For example, knowing that DS7 is a pattern maniac who can make sense of nearly anything put in front of him, but who cannot work much faster than a kid his real age is very useful knowledge! It changes the whole way we approach his education, and it has made school MUCH easier!
Don't be too frustrated, G3.
I think it will make sense eventually! Recent scores can take some time to settle in, you know?
