ITA with others who doesn't see it as a large spread. First, I don't think you can compare FSIQ with GAI, so you are looking at a 8 point difference. Second, DYS used to require 150 for the WJ Cog compared to 145 for the WISC, which would suggest that DYS, at least prior to the recent criteria changes, would consider that a three-point difference (two points above previously vs. one point below now). If the denial was due to the previous achievement score being substantially below the cut-off, then your DD might have a decent chance now with a GAI that is just one point below.
