I do want to state the facts as well and hope that someone can enlighten me as to what would be helpful do to in our case.
NNAT - 104 I know it is average or slightly above average
CogAT - 111 the same comment as above
GBRS - 6 we are truly flabbergasted by this number. Hardly any positive commentary is provided (so to an earlier poster who said "All GBRS commentary is positive", this is clearly not true)

I don't think I have seen GBRS as low as ours, in these and all past forums I have combed through. So I am curious to hear your opinions.[/quote]

I am a proponent of all students having WISC testing done as the results help paint a picture of a child's strengths and challenges. With that being said, unless the WISC testing hints at an LD, I do not think your child will be found Level IV Center eligible. However, the WISC test results may point to strengths in verbal or math, which may result in Level III (part-time) placement.

some kids just don't do group tests well and as for GBRS well it's subjective. A strong WISC could work on appeal but with these scores I think you need 137+. I would also recommend submitting strong work samples to shore up the WISC. [/quote]
