@libaya: That is great that you are starting now to pull everything together for your child! I found someone out of state to look over DD’s current test results and give me some advice–this person has solid credentials in the 2E/gifted area. He believes DD has dyslexia for sure, based upon the results of the original testing she had. He thinks my original assessor did not correctly diagnose her. So, I’d need to have her reassessed. But I have not found anyone near to me who deals with diagnosing gifted kids, plus I am not sure if it is worth paying even more money to get a diagnosis that I am not even certain her school will accept, considering her current grades and such. Though it would be helpful to have the correct diagnosis for college for sure.
So, I am not sure what to do. But thank you for telling me about the Gifted Development Center! I think it will be worth it to see if I can consult with someone there to get an opinion on what I should do about a retest.
