[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d schedule a meeting with your school’s teaching and learning center and ask their opinion. Concurrently, I’d schedule meeting with pediatrician to discuss options on a neuropsych… they may be able to call in a favor and get testing scheduled soon.

If all falls into place, and there is a slow processing score, he/she can have accommodations in place for fall testing. [/quote]
Should everyone do this so that "all falls into place" for everyone to score a 1490/35?[/quote]

“Falls into place” means if you can get an appointment and get tested.

The second thought was IF there is a processing issue.  Not diagnosing … but it’s what I’d be wanting to know.

It’s not unusual for girls to over compensate for years and hit a wall. [/quote]

My understanding (from watching others) is that the College Board is not going to instantly grant accommodations even if the school does and especially if the grades are good.  I know quite a few kids who scrambled for accommodations in 11th grade and who have been denied by the college board. [/quote]
