    We have the opportunity to have it administered to DD9 independently but don't really need it for anything specific. If anything it would just be for the test taking experience. From my research it doesn't appear to be very in depth. Other then some numbers or a %ile does it offer any real useful info to parents? We don't need it for services at this time.

    Thanks!

    My son was tested with this as an initial look at where he was percentile-wise. It is not very in depth, and because of that it could be considered an inadequate way to screen for gifted programs. Since you are not relying on it for that, now worries there. Having it done independently you might get more info from it than we did, hope it goes well for your dd~
