doing the portfolio or paying to take an iq test. We already have scores that exceed the SAT requirement. What would be an indicator of probable IQ scores? We don't want to pay for the test if it's not going to go well. But the "portfolio" might be difficult also, since it needs to be impressive, and I'm assuming that they are really critical of them, since no IQ score is present. The reason the IQ score is to risky is because she has not always scored so high on some sections of the NNAT and CoGAT. Then some scores have been at 149, which is close to the ceiling, apparently. So, what test would be the best indicator of the IQ score. We have taken the SAT, MAP, NNAT, and CoGAT, but that's about it.
