Zen scanner I would love a link to research suggesting the SB is suspect for HG kids, its the test of choice with the majority of gifted experts here. And certainly both my kids, including miss HG+ scored higher on the SB. In part due to better engagement with the test due to better rapport with an expert tester. But both of them the SB5 just seemed to suit them better, particularly in the non verbal. There verbal scores were only margin of error different from the wisc or WPPSI they had taken earlier (2-3 points).
