[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 501008, member: 11791"] "Borderline" is a term that gets used a fair bit around here, but in a way that makes sense to us... at least, they way they explained it. If the child scores well into the range of indicating a problem, then its likely to stick long-term. if the child scores well out of the range of indicating a problem, then this is also likely to stick. But... if their score is really close to the cut-off point ... it could go either way. So, rather than make a call one way or the other, they call it "borderline" which (around here) means teachers and other professionals are to treat this child as though they had the diagnosis, but... if the inteventions etc. aren't working, then maybe the diagnosis is incorrect...
