Do you think FCPS AAP would reject a 140 IQ Score on appeal?

This year 50/50

I hope not since my kid got a 132.

All screening is planned to be completed by coming Friday, but you'll know only by first week of June

No. They usually look for 132 and above but will never tell you that.

Just 1 week to screen all the appeals? That doesn't seem like a lot of time?

There aren't as many appeals as there were original files to review. How much time do you think they should get?

Not sure. A week just seems too quick. But I guess I have no sense of how many appeals there are.

Why would AAP reject a kid with a 140 WISC? That's extremely high. Are kids going to prep classes to get these scores?

Yes, there are many prep classes. Mine in particular, will get a DC, a minimum of 140 full scale on WISC V.

You can't prep for an IQ test. Why is this so hard for people to understand. WISC is not like the CogAT or NNAT. There are no prep courses!

Of course you can, and of course there are prep courses. That's why you aren't supposed to take the same type of IQ test more than once a year, because taking them too close together has a similar effect to prepping.

As for how many 2nd graders prep for an IQ test, I don't think it's very many. But I have no real way of knowing.

I agree taking the same IQ test more than once in a year has the affect of prepping but there are no prep classes for IQ tests.
