[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]12:03, if you truly believe the WPPSI is only appropriately used to test for learning disorders, then that's your problem. The WPPSI is well recognized by PhD level researchers as a valid and effective tool for evaluating academic talent in children. If you think it's only for spotting learning disabilities, you ought to do some more research into it. [/quote]
There are many, many, many more useful and much cheaper tests to evaluate academic talent if the schools are serious about spotting academic talent?  (e.g., ERB, ISEE, SSAT, Explore, SCAT)[/quote]
As someone else already noted several posts ago, most of those are group tests, not individually administered.  And I don't think any of them is targeted at the same age group as the WPPSI.

I understand you're agitated over this, and I can tell no one's going to change your mind, so I don't see much point in continuing this discussion.  However, I'd really suggest you do some more reading on the subject.  You might be surprised at what you learn.[/quote]
