[quote=Anonymous]OP, this is 5:32 from the other day. Your friend might be referring to subscores of the CogAT, but your son took the WISC. If you look at the AAP appeals thread from last year, it seems the WISC is perhaps carries more weight than the CogAT or NNAT, presumably because the WISC is individually administered by a psychologist. I'd still emphasize the high subscores. Also 127 on the WISC seems to be within the range of WISC scores that were accepted last year (according to the appeals thread). Our DC had qualifying scores last year on each of the CogAT and NNAT. We also had a WISC done privately, which was 128. (As you mentioned, processing and working memory brought down the overall score.) DC had an adjustment period in AAP but is doing fine now with accommodations (for dysgraphia and anxiety). Your son obviously is very bright and may well thrive in the AAP environment. Twice exceptional doesn't seem to be al that unusual in AAP. [/quote]
