My DD took the RIAS at 6 1/2 and scored in the MG range, so that wasn't our experience (not that I think she is PG, but based on school performance we expected slightly higher scores). However, I wish I had more info on her. It's a very short test and just doesn't give the same depth of information as the other, lengthier instruments do. In my time here I have seen a fair number of posters saying that their child's scores were fairly different on the RIAS than the SB or WISC.
