Hi... not sure why some of the posters think I was suggesting my younger daughter is gifted. I clearly indicated that I did not think she was... The OLSAT was given to the entire 2nd grade as a screening for the gifted program (this is a new procedure that started this year, so my older daughter did not take the OLSAT, just the WISC IV, and other screening tools before being allowed to take the IQ test).
I was simply surprised that my younger daughter scored average to below average... and was wondering if the OLSAT was a good tool to evaluate young children, and whether there might be something else going on that explain why she did not test in the higher average area that I kind of expected she would.
Also, I had read siblings tend to be with 1-2 standard deviations of each other, so I noted the gap.
Anyway, thanks for the thoughtful input!
