Our experience with the SB-V was mixed. First, my DD's scores were lower on the SB-V than the WISC-IV and did not seem to reflect her verbal strengths as well. However, it was helpful to see her scores on Quantitative Reasoning (one of her strength areas) that are not tested on the WISC. Also, the SB-V scores showed a clear distinction on verbal vs. non-verbal working memory for our DD, and helped to push us on the 2e evaluation process. (Although she scored average or above in total working memory on both the WISC and the SB, her non-verbal working memory was only a 6th percentile.)
