A large gap in IQ subset scores-what does it mean? - 02/25/14 05:29 AM
My son is 6 and a half years old and is in 1st grade.
We just received his IQ group test scores:
Verbal: 109, Quanitative: 129, and NonVerbal: 150
It was a group test and we don't know the exact testing method. A letter from school implies that he might have maxed out the highest possible NonVerbal score. School will do further testing to see if he is highly gifted - individual testing or smaller group testing, I am not sure.
There is a 41-point gap between nonVerbal (150) and verbal (109) scores. The gap is big. Some say that a gap like this can indicate learning disabilities. What does this gap tell us?
