Minichi-- I also wanted to mention that if the WIAT is scored similarly to the WJ (I assume that it is) a 143 is fantastic score-- something like 99.8 percentile. It means your DS is closer to 1 and 1,000 than 1 in 100. Additionally, there may be some scores that are more beneficial than others-- I guess (my opinion) that I would rather DS be a better reader than speller, if I had the choice. When we took the WJ achievement- some of the first scores I zoomed in on were applied math, reading comprehension, and written expression. I assume all of the scores are important, but comprehension, problem solving, and written expression seem far more helpful as educational demands increase.
