[QUOTE="agee, post: 352594"] This is all super helpful. The testing was probably done under ideal circumstances. First, it was done privately - not by school - and in a quiet, calm setting with a psychologist who I know he trusted and felt comfortable with because of his answers to some other questions. He wasn't reluctant to do it and I even left a little treat for her to give him about half-way through to keep him motivated. He has always liked one-on-one activities like that, even when they're academic. Here are his subset scores: FSIQ: 77 verbal: 77 nonverbal: 86 Working memory: 88 Processing: 78 Basic reading: 88 Reading comprehension: 78 Math calc: 68 Math reasoning: 80 Written expression: 71 Visual Memory: 85 Verbal: 82 She also said the evaluation. for Executive functioning showed extremely poor development in that area (ya think?) Anyhoo, what I wanted to hear from you is that these things CAN change and it's not set in stone. Which is what you told me! Thanks! And I'm especially heartened that it doesn't negate an IEP. I am going to duke it out with his current school for another year and if things don't get better there we will look into other options. You all are THE BEST! A [/QUOTE]
