[quote=Anonymous]If by "pushing hard" you mean "paying for a WISC", then I agree with you. All but 3 of the kids listed above as being admitted on appeal have IQs of 130 or above. But I don't consider having a WISC done "pushing hard". I see that as a parent taking a reasonable step to make sure the committee has all relevant information. In the cases above, it seems that the committee recognized that the initial denial was flawed due to incomplete information. It just goes to show that if a parent believes the denial was wrong, they should WISC and appeal if it's over 130. But that definitely skews in favor of those who can afford to have the WISC done. Note - my DC was admitted first round, so I have no dog in this fight.[/quote]
