Polly I think you're right and I was wrong - I'm sorry about the confusion! I was going on memory when my visually-challenged dd took the WISC - her neuropsych showed me what I thought was the symbol search test pages but when I looked just now at online descriptions, I found a link that has pictures of what the subtests look like, and the pages I'm thinking of were like the cancellation examples. I didn't recall my dd having any additional subtests (cancellation is an optional subtest) but it makes sense that she might have had an additional subtest given at the time - the concern about her vision arose because she scored > .5th percentile on symbol search... so I'm sure after I heard that "> .5th percentile" nothing else was really getting through my brain cells in any meaningful way lol.
My apologies for my previous post confusing cancellation and symbol search!
