Ziggy, since the WISC-IV doesn't quite meet the DYS requirements (they don't consider GAI), I would recommend waiting for the WIAT results. If they are there, it would be a very strong application. Did they give you the regular FSIQ? That is also accepted and with strong WMI/PSI scores, could easily be over the 145 mark.
As embarassed as I am to write this, I'm a little relieved to hear you say he doesn't fit the DYS requirements to a "T"! We'll definitely wait for the WIAT scores before submitting, but I'm really considering pulling him out of his public school soon, like by the end of the month. Is the school still required to give me the results of the WIAT testing if I pull him out? Heck, if I knew they'd cooperate and still give me his scores and the recommendation from the GT teacher for the DYS application, I'd pull him out tomorrow!
I don't think I have a FSIQ score. The report is so vague, and the only numbers they gave me were the ones I mentioned above. Could they have only administered part of the test? I'm such a newbie to all of this, excuse my ignorance!
