kindly tell me how to score in WPPSI-III
my daughter is in the first grade and she plan to take gift and talent test in juanary. Does she need to do the WPPSI practice?
Can some one tell me how to find other subsets other than picture concepts on this site. I go to the questions and games but seem to get the same questions. I thought I would be able to review other areas with my monthly package. Please assist.
My son is going to Pre-Kindergarten this September and I will apply for private school this September. What tests should I use for his preparation?
