[quote=Anonymous]I would strongly suggest having your child take the WISC. I suspect that one high score on one subtest, even though high enough to place in the pool, is not nearly as impressive as a strong FSIQ -- especially if you're trying to counteract middling GBRS & school support. My own children with decent CogAt & Naglieri scores tested significantly higher on the WISC, and I've heard of many similar cases, so I'd bet your child's WISC results would be strong. I believe a high FSIQ is the single most persuasive piece of new info. you could hope to submit. Keep in mind that the psychologist's WISC report might also include good descriptive info. re your child's motivation, perserverance, demeanor, etc. in the test, which could also counteract the school's input -- with a high FSIQ and a strong recommendation from the psychologist, the report would in effect be making the case that perhaps your child has not been appropriately recognized & served by the GE program.[/quote]
