Do you feel that the lower scores on similarities and comprehension make sense, or did they seem unlike your child? The one thought that I had right away was, he was only 5 (I'm guessing?) when he had the WISC - I can see a 5 year old answering the police uniform question that way, and possibly misunderstanding what he was being asked to do on similarities etc.

Also curious - did you receive subtest scores on the CELF? My ds12 has an expressive language disorder - all of his scores on the CELF are above average, but there is a large discrepancy in the percentile between two of the types of subtest, plus the CELF (as I understand it) isn't timed... and the SLP who administered it said on those sections where he had his relatively low scores, it took him literally forever to come up with his answers compared to the parts of the test where he scored much higher. DS' expressive language disorder primarily impacts written expression - he struggles with generating ideas when he has to write.
