I went back and looked -- his processing speed was 30th%ile, which is tagged as average. I guess that's in normal range under some definition of normal but when every other score is 95th%Ile+, it stands out.

His IEP is gifted only, not for anything else. I hate to point out the processing speed officially, what do you think?

I did work with him tonight on asserting himself when he needs more time. He was practicing some phrases. I'm afraid at 6 that may just slow him down even more trying to do both of those at once. He also gets slowed down thinking in noisy environments, so that's a factor too. He's sensitive to noise.

I think I will try to let the teacher know to keep it in mind next time she tests him. Thanks.
