Thanks for the response Dottie - yes, I do think he *needs* this, I guess when I said I am ok with the scores, I mean that I am not doing this for my own gratification (of course!
)- he was really miserable before we started on this whole thing and has just been so excited about school since he has been in the program.
I think it is interesting on the non-verbal too - considering he typically scores higher on verbal areas, I am hoping with a non-timed test he could really let loose with the non-verbal. I wondered if he ran out of time on the naglieri too, but they don't show an attempted number.
Sounds like you are saying WISC-IV is non-timed. I will try to speak with the psych today and see what she thinks about this, and also get back with the dev. ped. about the very low number on quantitative. He's actually very good with computation, given plenty of time.
And yes, I am still pursuing the possibility of the ld/capd, especially after the low quant. score...I believe that is an area affected by capd, but again I need to double check that.
At least I've got the 'obstinate, head-strong girl' thing going for me...
