I am trying to decide which is best- testing by the public schools or by an independent professional that my t recommended. Anyone have any info on which one is better? I'm sure both have their pros and cons, but I was thinking a little insight might help.

As a little background, the testing is for possible reading difficulting- specifically with short term memory/recall, and retention of information. I was a decent student up until 9th grade (I am currently going into 11th), so I am thinking that if there is a problem, that it is minor. I am personally leaning towards the independent professional because I feel like he might be able to find little things that maybe the public school wouldn't be able to pick up on?
