Hi fastcar, this link is for the 'official' SBV reference for how the current scores differ to the old ones: http://www.assess.nelson.com/pdf/sb5-asb3.pdf

It's produced by Riverside Publishing who distribute the SBV. Maybe something official will help the psych get her head around it...

We're in Australia too (not WA), and have found the quality of education dept psychs to be pretty variable, which is incredibly frustrating.

Best of luck!
