ABQMom - Yes, unfortunately (and that is a going point... that no IQ score can be better than an invalid one - I hadn't thought of that).

So my son had no "gifted" IQ on record, and yet he can read/write /speak two languages even though his receptive language test score was an abysmal 0.5 (percentile). There are "typical" kids in his grade 2 French Immersion class who aren't reading any English yet (they start formal instruction in grade 3), and he reads English above grade level, as well as reading French (at a grade 1 level). Yet he's 0.5 in receptive language ability. Hmmm.

The district psychologist kept saying "that's interesting." Yes, yes it is.
