[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have different take on WISC.  We had it done last year and it was very high 99.9+%. (DC also had very high Cogat of over 140, but GBRS was FOs.) It didn't work on the appeal.  However, this is the reason why I think you should get it if you can afford it.  If the WISC score is really high then, even if the appeal doesn't work, (1) you can share that with your local school principal and AART as one of the reasons why your child should get into principal placement local LIV and (2) you can also share the WISC score next year with your AART and home room teacher in the beginning of the year to talk through your child's assessment and why you think advanced academics would be helpful for him/her.

What are they doing in class now that demonstrates it?[/quote]

Sure, WISC can maybe help in principal placement. I am unfortunately at a center school. So that doesn’t work....[/quote]

I am the OP of the comment above.  We are also at a center school, but I used it for (2).  In our case, we weren't concerned about the cost and decided that we should have the assessment done in any case.  We are glad that we did.  Of course, it helps too that DC scored extremely high.  We have used it for applying to Davidson Academy. [/quote]
