[quote=Anonymous]17:04 here - we did not cherry pick a psychologist and have no idea whether its true or not that private psychologists inflate assesments. They probably do but the County gives us an option to test the child privately and we exercised it. This is for our first child so we were new at this. We were told later that that people preare there kids over summer with a bunch of test preps available over the web. The standard test are not to be prepared for and in fact it is considered cheating if you do. So if every private psychologist is to be doubted we should doubt all scores assuming everyone that scored "high" cheated by prepping. This sounds ridiculous but no less so than saying all private psychologits are dubious. There are people who play fair and there are others that game the system. Profiling generically is just not a good idea. Not here and not anywhere. [/quote]
