I'm just trying to get an idea of what level my son might be at, according to Deborah Ruf's levels of giftedness. He seems to be on par with Level 3 and 4 descriptors and IQ scores (informal testing by his aunt with WPPSI-III) with the exception of early talking/communication/pointing. He didn't begin talking or communicating much until 16-17 months, then exploded with all the "preschool" skills, words, then phrases then sentences within a few months. He is now 4.5 and I could go into detail about his history but for the sake of being brief, I'm wondering if other parents have noticed their children being at a level 3 or higher without the communication piece fitting in so early.
Thanks in advance!
