[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Same test results can be sent to multiple schools, so the 9:48 assessment is slightly off, but the point is taken.[/quote]
Good point.  That actually means they make even less on admissions testing.[/quote]
So child psychologists actually lose money on these tests and perform them purely as a service to society.  :roll:[/quote]
Keep your eyeroll to yourself.  No one said they're losing money; just that administering the tests is not a big moneymaker, and may be less profitable than other psych services these professionals offer.

So why do they offer to administer the tests if they can get paid more for other psych services?  Not my field, but I'd guess it's because (1) few psychologists have a steady 40-50 hours/week of higher-paying psych consulting appointments, so administering the tests is a good way to profitably fill time, and (2) administering tests creates a good first-contact point that can lead to other more-profitable work.[/quote]
