One piece of advice I have read here that I think is worth repeating over and over again is that the scores from one test are a reflection of what your child was doing on that one day at that one particular slice in time. There are so many things that could go into test results - maybe your ds was tired, maybe bored, maybe didn't feel well, maybe he didn't like the person who did the testing... who knows. If you haven't seen any signs of struggle or concerns at school, I wouldn't worry any more ever again about that test. If your ds later on, does seem to run into issues that you hadn't anticipated, I'd have him tested again privately. The difference between the typical school eval and private testing is that the psychs who administer private testing will typically ask the question *why* is there scatter in subtest scores and try to come up with an explanation through parent interview, student's history, looking at school work, and possibly adding on a few additional types of tests.
I will also politely disagree with the school psych's note that the discrepancy in his scores didn't make sense for a HG+ child - maybe they don't make sense for *him* (because they aren't reflective of his true abilities for whatever reason), but there are quite a few of us parents here who have HG/EG/PG children with similar scatter in scores and our kids are doing very well in school and achieving big things, even those of our kids who's discrepancies are due to disabilities.
