[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can assure you that you do not buy a wisc score.  What you are buying is someone's time...2-4 hours of a professional who will administer and score the test.  The outcome will be what it will be.  Not every kid who takes the WISC scores high.

I suspect you are not in a position to judge who belongs and who does not.  [/quote]

Agree with this.

I don't think most psychologists would risk his/her license or do something against code of conduct just to inflate testing scores for his/her clients. On the other hand,  GRBS has a higher chance to be rated incorrectly due to its subjective nature. I'm not saying an IQ test is perfect, [b]but I would trust a high WISC a lot more than CogAT, NNAT or GBRS, especially GBRS.[/b]
FWIW, DC got in during regular selection process. In our case, past WISC scores (for other purposes) lined up well with NNAT, CogAT and GBRS.[/quote]

trust it for what?  To show akid's I.Q.?  And what does that prove exactly.  I thought this was the [u]AAP[/u]program.  I.Q. alone doesn't prove squiddly.  Thankfully they take alot more than just that into consideration.[/quote]
