Note: Specific achievement tests are useful instruments when administered under standardized conditions and interpreted within the context of other diagnostic information. The Wide Range Achievement Test is not a comprehensive measure of achievement and therefore is not useful if used as the sole measure of achievement.
Specific areas of information processing (e.g., short– and long–term memory, sequential memory, auditory and visual perception/processing, processing speed, executive functioning, and motor ability) should be assessed. Examples of acceptable instruments include:
○ Detroit Tests of Learning Aptitude
o Information from subtests on Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale
o Stanford Diagnostic Mathematics Test
o Information from subtests on Woodcock–Johnson Psychoeducational Battery: Tests of Cognitive Ability
