In my state, in my country, according to the state's education guidelines for the gifted, a child is classed as gifted when they receive a 130 on the WISC and 145 on the WPPSI. So, my state obviously feels that the latter might give generous results.
That's interesting. The Davidson cutoffs put the WPPSI-WISC gap at 5 points in their entrance standards. I wonder if your state is implicitly trying to avoid IDing younger gifted children.
