Hello,
My son was tested privately (sb5) and by the school (wisc iv). The results seem much more spread on the wisc (although the school psych said that he was distracted in some tests).
I am wondering whether any one ad any thoughts on the differences between the results. Also I am wondering whether I have calculated the gai correctly ( 147 ) and whether it is appropriate for him and should I be worried about the wm etc given thy didn't seem so low on sb5.
