    Aeh, thank goodness there are people like you around! You would not believe the grief I went through trying to find someone who could calculate EXIQ. I truly doubted myself at one point that it existed based on the reactions I got from some people in the field.

    Just to clarify... a derived WJ score is used to check for relative consistency between the SB IQ score and an actual WJ achievement score... in other words, the derived score is not an actual WJ achievement score... calculating a derived WJ score does not eradicate the need for WJ achievement testing?
