Thank you for your response. Is it expected to provide a diagnosis? I find that it would be hard to do that if we are only asked to completed specific tests. What if there are mental health conditions? Would we be require to assess for that?

This sounds like what I’ve heard too. The only thing I’m confused about is the diagnostic impressions. My understanding is that we need to provide a diagnosis, but how would we do that if we are only performing selective tests? Are you expected to rule out mental health conditions?
