I was a 29. Then I went through again, pretending to be T, and got a 39. Of course, the error bars on that (me pretending to be him, the test being designed for adults) are so huge, it probably doesn't mean a thing. :)

yes, but it can give you an idea. I wonder how Chris would do pretending to be Thomas, and if they would be remotely close...

I have spent some time the last few days thinking about what I would say in a letter/observational assessment regarding T. I have a few ideas fleshed out...so let me know if you think it is necessary...

Yeah, some of the things obviously fit very well; others were obviously polar opposites (the telling stories/playing pretend/etc. stuff, which of course he does constantly). It'll be interesting to see what an actual assessment comes back as.

How long would it take you to write it? Because I don't want to waste your time on the off chance that we don't need it, but I suspect that we're pretty likely to need it. And I suppose, even if we end up not needing it, it might be good information for the assessor to have.... I don't know. I'm going to go do a bit more research.
