The evaluators should be calling you to discuss the scores. I called the agency myself when I didn't receive anything after a week, and someone went over the report with me.

PM me....I am a preschool psychologist, and can tell you what the scores mean. There are all different types of scores, depending on the test. For many tests 100 is the average score, but for others, 50 is average. Don't think of it like a test out of 100...it's not a percentage right or wrong.

it doesn't have to do with the actual number of the score.. but what the "average" score is, and then where your child's score is. So, if the test is scored to 100 and the majority of children, at your DC's age, gets a range of 88-95 and your child gets 80, your child would be considered out of range. If you've ever taken statistics, it has to do with the standard deviation curve, which is the big bell curve. The BIG bell in the middle would be where most "normal functioning" children would like. And then there are children that function 1, or 2 standard deviations above and below that mean. Hope that makes sense.
