Oh Kriston you're totally right! We've tested DS twice, once on the SB-5 (at 5 1/2) and on the WISC (at 6 1/2). Both tests provided invaluable information and insight into how his brain works. I have a hider who doesn't like to show off his abilities at school. We thought he was HG at home but they were screaming ADHD at school. We really needed the tests to help us advocate for better placement and more challenge.

I'm just not sure that testing a 2 1/2 year old is particularly useful. At that age, the school wouldn't accept it for advocacy a few years later anyway. But if you have the money and the time, it doesn't really hurt!
