Hello

I'm hoping someone can help me interpret what my daughter's test results mean. She is 8 years old and had the WISC-IV and partial WIATT-II administered a few months ago. Unfortunately she was very tired on the day which may have affected her results somewhat. The psychologist could not give her an IQ result as in her words "a full scale IQ was not given due to the wide discrepancy in her composite scores."

My daughter falls into the high/average range according to her results but at school her marks have been falling and the teachers did not pay any attention to the report and tests I had done. I am worried that she may be mildly gifted (as I understand mildly is a score form 115)in English yet she only scored a C on her last report card. Her maths is very poor (where it wasn't previously in year 1) but according to the psychologist this is unusual if you calculate her expected composite score with someone of her cognitive abilities.

Also she seems to do better in the WIATT than the WISC though she was not tested in the written. I'm not sure why. Can anyone shed some light on what her IQ would be if you left out the WMI and PSI which I understand is sometimes done? Or calculate her GAI? I've tried to do it but don't seem able. Even though she doesn't appear to be gifted I need help to make the teachers understand that she is capable of more and underperforming at school and her marks are dropping for a reason. Thanks in advance:
