  - but you may have a chance at the second round later in the summer. That could be big.

    - it's not an appeal process--it's simply so that you can look and see what dc did. they say so clearly

      - if the DOE really messed up with the scoring (like they did with a few tests last year) and the score goes up noticeably they will give you a second chance at ranking.

  - We have moved on, just want to see the test. Depending on what happens, we may have to do it again next year, so I may as well try to learn something.

    - if you're waiting to look at the test, you have not moved on. Your dc was 4 when he or she took it. Four year olds are unpredictable. Seriously -- move on.

      - A very big check has been mailed already, so we have moved on. Still want to see what happened, and was supposed to hear from DOE by now per their instructions. So just wondering if someone else has, if that's ok with you.

- I just got my appt. Seriously you have a right to view the test and if you feel it'll help clarify things for you in any way at all by all means view the test.

  - curious to hear your response - i was wondering the same thing but figured with a 99 I'd leave it alone - mostly I wanted to know what two shapes dc did not know.
