Do you have the subtest scores? I am curious if there is scatter, particularly if there is one subtest under PRI that brought that score down - reason being it's a test that relies heavily on vision, which processing speed subtests also rely on. If you saw relatively low scores on all three of those subtests, you might want to look into possible vision issues.

I would also *love* to have whoever has mentioned here in the past a link re CogAT not being reliable as an indicator of true intellectual ability for HG/HG+ kids ... please please please share a link or cite the source. We were once in the very same situation - we're long past that at this point in my ds' school years, but I would so love to send that article back to his elementary gifted program teachers because I truly suspect there are quite a few kids missed for gifted programming in our school district every year due to CogAT.
