Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Identification, Testing & Assessment High PSI relatively lower VCI and WMI

DS7 (in 1st grade) underwent a private IQ testing at the recommendation of his teacher. The psychologist just called with some preliminary results.

He has PSI in the 99 percentile while both VCI and WMI are in the 50-ish percentile. His FSIQ is in the low 120s.

For WIAT-III, his language subtests are grade-equivalent, but his math-related subtests are between 5th and 10th grade.

Should the spread between the PSI and VCI/WMI and the relatively weakness in language be a concern?

Trying to digest the information before the official psychologist meeting next week.
