DS's subscore on one of the knowledge subtests of the SB-5 was, by far, his lowest score. Didn't bring down his entire score that much though because it was only on that one subtest. I recall a couple of other people on this board saying that gifted boys frequently score low on the knowledge subtests of the SB-5 - I'll defer to them... Are you guys out there? smile
