Do you know what is considered AAP on it? Is it scored like WISC? 132 and up tends to be top 2%?
DAS-2 has same mean (100) and Standard Deviation (15) as WISC. standard Score of 130 is 98th percentile rank.
Thank you. I was curious too.

I heard it's longer and harder (as in more draining due to more subparts) than WISC. That's all I know. It's approved by FCPS but don't know how it's scored or what is AAP acceptable. Sorry!

I know it is an IQ test but have no knowledge of its use for AAP eligibility purposes.

Has your child had it done. It's listed as an approved test. Is it an IQ test? What is the necessary score on it for AAP consideration? Anyone know?
