My ASD child has been called brilliant and talented beyond his years by a middle school English teacher and now a high school English teacher (and she was referring to a short paragraph answer on a test). And the funny thing is...he is totally mathy! And from everything all his teachers tell me (totally unsolicited) he performs miles ahead of peers. His IQ shows gifted but not dys gifted. I totally think the iq test doesn't reflect what people see in normal life for him and I think it has to do with his autism.
