[QUOTE="klmno, post: 257665, member: 3699"] My son was 11 yo when he was tested and his lasted for about the same lenght of time as yours. Is this you younger or older child? The psychologist who did my son's said it usually takes longer for younger children and that some tests are determined after she sees how things are going- for instance, if she gave a general test and saw a concern in one area, she might add in a more specific test to check more in that area. She did her own scoring. Was this a psychologist with a phd or neuropsychologist? The testing can reveal a lot. But, in my humble opinion, some disorders/diagnosis still need to be reviewed by other specialist, such as a neurologist or psychiatrist. Still, the testing is not a waste no matter what and does aid in diagnosis if it doesn't completely nail it down. Contary to what seems logical to most parents, I think it is common to leave the child on medications during testing. I never understood that either. [/QUOTE]
