[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Were there clear weaknesses in verbal/reading/writing or just not as high? Sometimes kids like this don't get in because they could just be placed into accelerated math. If you have solid writing/verbal work samples include those also. [/quote] -:( yes, low verbal 100 (age stanine 5) and nonverbal 112 (age stanine 7) but very bright kid and loves reading. Prefers non-fiction and funny books. [/quote] yes, that's a tough appeal case. Did you not complete a WISC or were the scores not any higher than the group tests? I would focus on examples of creativity and the need for more challenging math. Don't draw attention to the lower scores. But if you don't get in on appeal, you can use the scores for asking for placement within the base school for accelerated math. Good luck.[/quote]
