[quote=Anonymous]OP, what you cited does sound like educational impact, given this is the school's standarized testing and his performance is not up to his abilities.  If you do neuropsych and educational testing and the psychologist concludes your son has a disability, the psychologist will include a list of suggested services and acommodations at the end of the report.  We went to GMU (but for a different LD diagnosis).  We had an appointment within two weeks and cost was reasonable.

In our case, our gifted DD with very high verbal abiliities but awful spelling and general disorganization was tested, and they teased out a visual processing issue.  The visual processing problem wasn't immediately apparent in the IQ testing or educational testing; they had to administer a few additional targeted tests to get to the cause.  Once we understood the cause and received some meaningful suggestions for services/accomodations, things became a lot easier.  She ended up qualifying for a 504 for acommodations, and we have done outside tutoring and skills pracdtice at home.   [/quote]
