[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you can afford WISC, go for it. The result will help you to make better decision whether you should appeal of not.  The CoAgt and NNTA scores sometimes conflict with GBRS, thats why you will need additional factor such as WISC score. [/quote]

You should know that the WISC costs around $400, so I wouldn't do it just to see how he does.  [b]Only do the WISC if you think your child would do well and be happy  in AAP, because even if you have the WISC done, he still might not get in (9 is pretty low)[/b].  I have one child in AAP and one not.[/quote]

Don't do the WISC just to see if you can use it for an AAP application. Use the WISC because you want to know how your child's strengths and weaknesses regardless of their AAP status.

My older is in Gen Ed and my younger is in AAP. We did get the WISC for the younger one and was amazed at how much information was in there so we paid another $400 to get our older one tested. 
Probably one of the best things we could have done as it now helps us better navigate their very different educational needs. [/quote]

Very good point. You would be surprised and amazed at the results that help explain how kids process information and calls out strengths/weaknesses.[/quote]
