I am posting these test results for a friend whose child was recently tested privately. I posted standard scores where I had them, and percentiles otherwise. According to the testers, the child has relative weaknesses but no LD, but the results are consistent with ADHD. My friend feels like there is still some kind of LD there that is being missed and would appreciate any guidance, especially as to further testing that might be helpful. I am including sketchy (all I have) information regarding prior testing, which concluded that the child did have a language based LD and auditory processing issues.
Thanks!
