thanks for the comments.

Yes I'd like to get the best information so we can make the right decisions. But I'm not sure what will give us that. I'm concerned that the reduced number of subtests in the WPPSI for a 3yo might over inflate the results. I haven't looked at how the SB5 is administered to 3yo's so I will check that out - more comprehensive will be good.

At the moment my daughter has great verbal ability - but we also read a LOT. I worked through a vocab test informally with her just before she turned 2 and she had the age equiv. of 4y3m back then. She does show signs of being gifted in other areas but nothing as strong as her verbal ability.

She is also a bit of a perfectionist and becomes frustrated with her fine motor skills, so I'm worried about how that might come out on a test too.
