    Well, my son took the WJIII last week and a couple days later the tester called me. I had forgotten to fill in a question about his developmental milestones. No big deal. But then she also asked if he was on any medications. When I said no she seemed surprised. She said somthing to the effect of "Really? He wasn't on any over the counter medication on the day of testing?" Again I said no, but now I'm worried. Why would she ask that? I'm wondering if he seemed slow or drowsy during the test. Maybe it's nothing and I'm just reading too much into it. Has anyone else been asked that by the tester?

    can you call and ask? i would think it was weird but i would probably have asked "not that i recall, why do you ask?" strange for her to just ask and not explain why frown

    I know. I should have asked. It didn't really sink in until after I hung up and I had time to think about it. We're meeting with her next week to go over the results so I'll definitely bring it up then. I guess I was hoping it was a standard question they asked. Apparently not smile
