He started reading at 3 years old and the psychologist said that he read better than any preschooler that she tested in her career.
To be honest, even though he is 4, I am interested in determining if he is a good candidate for the Davidson young Scholars Program. Thanks for your opinions.
What is he reading, BTW? Dr. Suess? Harry Potter? College Textbooks? I've learned that there are levels of reading as well. (Not that most Young Scholars are reading College texts at age 4, or even age 10, but to give the idea of the possible range.)
Sounds like an early entrance is a good idea, since Iowa Acceleration Manual talks about early entrance being a good solution for all levels of giftedness.
You listed the full scale for WPPSI as 135, were any of the subscales much higher? My son qualified in Verbal, but not Full Scale.
Wechsler Preschool & Primary Scale of Intelligence � III (WPPSI-III) Standard score 150+ (99.9th percentile):
Verbal, Performance or Full Scale
