Yes, from my understanding those are qualifying scores, very high.
I'm certainly no expert on the forum or anywhere else!!!
I think of the IQ score as the walk and the achievement scores as the talk.
Meaning, the IQ test is supposed to tell you what the child is capable of cognitively and academically and the achievement measures what they can actually do academically.
If you don't have an IQ test, I would recommend you consider it.
You could also apply to DYS with the achievement test and work samples/portfolio which I would also recommend. They'd let you know if they want more, which is not uncommon and doesn't mean the child would not get accepted ultimately!!
Greater than 99.9 is a very impressive score. I *think* what that means is that her broad writing scores are outperforming the highest level of the norming sample, so it can't be accurately measured.
Now, someone PLEASE, PLEASE jump in if I've stated that improperly.
