That's what they say--Dr. Amend and other psychs have said it is so, so apparently it is. But it sure didn't play out with my son.

He tested as a verbal kid does on the SB-V and he tested as off-the-charts visual-spatial on the WISC. Dr. A said, "He does not test like a visual kid. Not at all." The psych who gave the WISC said, "Well, he's OBVIOUSLY incredibly visual-spatial!" Same kid, different tests...

That still makes me shake my head and cross my eyes. How can he be verbal on the VS test and VS on the verbal test? confused But JBDad's son seems headed down the same path, so it seems to be the way kids like them test, for some reason.

I guess I'm saying that the experts say so...so take it with a grain of salt. wink
