Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Identification, Testing & Assessment Any body waiting on DYS appication?

I have submitted IQ testing on DYS's request and I'm waiting.
Anyone else out there applying this month?

I had to submit some extra paperwork last month so I'm waiting this month

good luck!

You too!

We're waiting too. We finally got DD's submitted and are looking for signs that we got it all in or that they need more info from us.
We're keeping our fingers crossed.
Good luck to us all!

good luck Kerry. You can email them to see if they have it all.

We got an email saying they got it all. I'm just still wondering if DH and I actually sounded like intelligent people with our answers or if we sounded like fools trying to explain DD and who she is and what she's done. But, I'm sure they get all kinds of applications and we'll be fine. It just seems like we're being tested, rather than DD being evaluated.

Indeed they do. Happily, the parents are not required to be PG.

I did not get that impression at all! Good luck to everyone.

My DS9 is borderline so I felt like I had pressure on me to show them who he is. I thought it was hard to judge what they wanted to see in the questions and a portfolio. I took the summer to prepare our application. Then it took my DH, who is a better writer, a month to edit. We did our best.
