DS was 6 when he was tested and had the same 27 point gap between PRI and VCI (PRI was higher). Neuropsych just called it a relative weakness. His processing speed and working memory were both around 110 and he said the processing speed may show up in terms of being "slow" with school work. He is accelerated 3 years for math so almost all of his peers in that class are 2-4 years older and I don't think he is any slower than average comnpared to even these older kids, at least when it comes to math. DD had a processing speed score of 93 and with her it is more obvious, esp since she also has ADHD. It shows up as a really slow work pace and poor fluency in terms of recalling math facts and writing.
edited to add, I just read aeh's post and should have mentioned that DS has dyspraxia and had delayed speech, which may have resulted in the big gap between PRI and VCI. If he was tested again now at 8 1/2 I suspect the gap wouldn't be as big.
