[quote=Anonymous]Op, a couple of thoughts: With my older DC, we paid for a full neuropsych and DC did not get an ADHD diagnosis because you have to show clinical level indicators in 5 categories and DC only showed them in 4. But DC showed significant deficits in those 4 areas, so tester emphasized that just becasue DC didn’t have a diagnosis, didn’t mean DC didn’t need help/accommodations. So we found doing the testing to be valuable for getting accommodations even without a diagnosis. We also follow up testing with therapy and the psychologist who did the therapy for DC did their own evaluation and diagnosed DC with ADHD. So DC got the diagnosis anyway. With DC2, Neuropsych showed deficits at home and in the testing but teachers reports showed nothing. The tester still gave a diagnosis of ADHD even without showing in two places, maybe becasue the testing showed attention problems. [/quote]
