NUMATS-Testing for gifted children?

Oh. Took me a minute to catch on...someone bumped up a post from last year.

Ok I thought I was crazy because I was confused. I am not crazy, lol I am glad to the OP that things worked out great but wonder why I didn't read about it last year.
To Cori, you are not crazy, lol I thought it said the same thing and I know I didn't get enough sleep. I slept 3 hours last night because I had to pick up my son from work at 1:30 in the morning and am watching for tornados so can't go to sleep like I want to.

That is one heck of a storm system if it is in Iowa, Indiana and Tennessee all around the same time! I really needed more sleep, too.

Glad that the testing went well for your son, jen.

It's a few hours away from me but I am scared it is moving quickly. I hide in the closet if it gets too near, lol and of course I pray that is for sure for everyone to be safe.

I am worried about the storm too! We are supposed to get up to 70 mph winds and storms. Supposed to come around the time my kids get off the bus. My DD is going to be freaked out. Of course work is going to be nuts too (my dads roofing company). Last time we had a wind storm the phones were ringing off the hook.

Stay safe everyone!!!! I have to remember to put my porch furniture in the garage when I get home.

Oh and for those thinking about having their son or daughter take the test, the main benefit is to prepare them for the upcoming ACT/SAT tests. Some schools like to use this test as an assement as to help place the kids in advanced programs too. Another benefit is the northwestern university offers programs for the kids as well, they are quite expensive though. I mainly had DS take the test to help him prepare for future tests. He wants to be a cardiologist so I am hoping he will be getting an academic scholarship.

I'm in IL and have the same wind warnings. I just got back from Target and glad to see no carts flying around hitting cars. LOL

So far 62,000 without power. Hoping ours stays on. I think we are more south of the worst of it.

Oh wow, this totally was from a year ago. I didn't notice at the time! That's what I get for thread searching at 4 am.
