[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When we took our ds in for private testing for the wisc the tester made sure to do a big write up at the front end where she described his appearance, reported answers to personal questions she asked him, etc. When I asked why, she said it was to help the school identify him, as there is apparently a flourishing trade in fake Wisc takers (or, you hire a kid who kind of looks like yours and who has taken it before and is really good and present him as your own). This is especially in the TJ mania part of FCPS. [/quote]

I’m the PP who posted this and I completely agree. I was flabbergasted when she told me people do this.

I brought it up as a potential reason they scouted OP’s Wisc, however. It’s the only reason I can think of. Maybe the private psych who did her Wisc has a bad reputation for “fakers”?[/quote]

You may be into something PP. [b]The notion that this private school OP’s kid is attending actually has an AAP info session and that she knows many kids from this school that are applying makes me wonder if there some coordinated effort [/b]that includes test prep and hand picking a psychologist known for skewing scores. What is this private school? [/quote]

I wonder about this also. Is it possible that FCPS is aware that this school is helping parents to put together AAP applications and takes that into account when evaluating the application packets?

Op - did you and other parents in your school uses the same psychologist? [/quote]
