What did the neuropsych eval include any other tests beside ability/achievement and ASD/ADHD screens? Just curious if there were any other tests that touched on WM skills.
FWIW, the discrepancy between his VCI and WM is > 1 SD, which I think (I'm not an expert!) means that it is significant. I wonder if some of his anxiety is related to that difference.
One of my 2e kids has a significant memory-related challenge, but it wasn't picked up by the WISC (it stands out on the WJ-III Cognitive and also on specific types of reading assessments).
The other thing I'd wonder - do you have any testing from school, earlier years? Was there any type of screen that was used when he was determined to be "gifted" at school?
Best wishes,
