    Thank you for the input. What do you mean by "bare minimum" scores on WJ?

    Should I submit a portfolio as well as WJ scores? If that's not necessary, I'd rather avoid it as I'm not quite sure what to submit.

    I read recently that Davidson does not accept all kids who make the 99.9 cut off. I'm really hoping they'll accept ds because we could desperately use some help! Am I crazy to think a 98th percentile kid would have been a whole lot easier?

    If you are in the 'questionable' zone, they will ask you to submit the portfolio, so there is really nothing to be gained by submitting it in addition to the WJ scores. Best Wishes,
