[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] A poor NNAT or CoGAT certainly does NOT mean a child is underachieving. You’re assuming that a poor test score reflects achievement. My child received what I considered poor NNAT/CoGAT score and he is certainly not an underachiever. Yet his WISC shows giftedness. [/quote] A low GBRS could easily indicate some degree of underachieving or a disconnect with the regular classroom. I don't think any kids were rejected with both a high GBRS and a gifted level WISC in the original application package. [/quote] You lumped in GBRS with NNAT and Cogat scores in your original post...you said low NNAT/CoGAT/GBRS...you assumed low scores on the tests equaled low achievement. Also, I also believe that low GBRS doesn’t necessarily indicate low achievement. It simple means the teacher isn’t seeing what she considers gifted behaviors. Gifted behaviors also don’t always correlate with high achievement. [/quote]
