WHAT TO DO NEXTNow that you understand how the matrix

points are calculated, you can contact your campus counselor for specific testing results…..

Remember…..“0” points in an area mean your child is not “smart”, “bright”, or even “above average”….. that he/she did not demonstrate the level of giftedness or potential giftedness to garner enough points in an area to be identified in the top 8-10% of his/her peers at this time……
