Thanks for all your replies.
In a way I disagree with this. WISC IV is better for kids with serious variation between intellectual strengths and slow processing speed because a GAI can be calculated, and it can help explain to people what they are seeing. Of course if your local gifted program ONLY wants to talk about FSIQ and doesn't 'get' GAI, then it's worth it to do SB-V.
