My daughter, 7, was tested with the WISC V and scored a 129 overall GAI. Her teacher, and the school psychologist, felt that this was low for her and had her tested again using the RIAS.
The RIAS came back with an overall score of 158. Why such the vast difference in scores? Which one would be a more accurate result of her overall intellectual abilities?
Some background. She's a straight A student and an avid reader. She has an impeccable memory(especially visually). She taught herself to read around 3YO and is now reading at a 9th grade level.
With the WISC her highest scores were in the verbal areas. So, I am not sure if the RIAS tends to captivate that more.
Thanks!!
