Wow. It's amazing that she can get a FSIQ in the moderately gifted range even with her LDs. It takes a very large amount of innate intelligence to be able to do that.
Please know I'm not nitpicking here, but I'm curious what you mean by this Grinity? I'm asking as the parent of a 2e kid with multiple challenges who's FSIQ, while definitely lower than his GAI, is still very high (this is my ds12)... so my first thought when I read it was, why would you be surprised by a high FSIQ just because a child has LDs. I'm actually quite curious about this as my dd8 has challenges with associative memory and does not test as high on IQ as I'd expect her to based on her achievement in areas that aren't impacted by her challenges, and based on her verbal demonstrations of thinking ability. I'm not surprised by her scores on memory-related subtests, but her range of scores on other tests seems odd when compared to her academic achievements and how quickly she learns.
