[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To compare : last year DS: GBRS 16, Naglieri 127, CogAt was low  (114, 103, 107, Composite 112).  Took CoGAt in small group due to IEP for ADHD and autism.   Admitted to me that "this was the most boring test I ever took, i stopped answering"

Not admitted. I suspect due to the Cog At. I feel with a Naglieri in the high 120's, and a GBRS of 16, he'd have been in with a decent CogAt.  We decided not to appeal, though had I had the GBRS  before the deadline. I might have.  DS is doing fine in base school with a Level III weekly pullouts and differentiation in class.

This year: DD GBRS 16 with extensive commentary.  Her teacher filled up every space available. There were 4 comments for each question, as there are supposed to be (1 per point). CogAt 132, 118, 108 with 122 Composite.  Naglieri 122.

I referred DS last year on the rec of the AART. I referred DD this year on the rec of her teacher and the AART.  I guess I'll find out soon.[/quote]

Your DS Wasn't admitted with GBRS of 16? Interesting. My DD had similar, below cutoff scores  as your DS (124, 107, 120) and a GBRS of 12.  We  decided to apply for local level IV -- we will not appeal if the stars aren't aligned...

He was not admitted with a 16, that is correct.  Again, he has autism and ADHD, so I'm not sure if that had an impact? I do know that his GBRS told me his teachers see his potential. I'm not sure he would have thrived in the enormous center class sizes.  I half-debated a parent referral this year, but decided to not mess with a situation that's working.  Every school is different with regard to Level III. At our school, it is a weekly pullout with the AART. We do not have LLIV, which I think would have been great for him. He does not like change.

What does level III differentiation entail?
