I agree with Chris. Knowing how long the test is helps you plan better (e.g., snacks). I couldn�t pick the time of DS�s test, but I could list preferences. DS is a morning kid. I knew he was more apt to be in a good mood if the test was in the morning rather than the afternoon. About a week before the test I started thinking about what I was going to tell DS. DS likes to know about changes in his routine ahead of time. He also likes honesty. DS would have been upset if I told him he was going to play with the psychologist and that didn�t happen. I won�t get DS�s test results until January (after the school application due date). I�m not sure how he did on the WPPSI yesterday. What I do know is that he went into the test a happy/confident kid and came out the same way. Regardless of the outcome of his scores, I�m glad the testing experience was positive for him. I�m not sure if this helps, but DS was with the psychologist for 30 minutes. This is the amount of time she spends with 3y/o children. DS and the psych came into the waiting room briefly after 15 minutes. The psych told me DS had a question to ask me. The question wasn�t test related. DS wanted to ask me a follow up question about sharks. We�d talked about sharks early that morning. I guess you could say he wasn�t a 100% focused on the test or he�s good at multitasking. ;-)
