My daughter was recently evaluated with the WISC V and WIAT III for her school's gifted program. Her FRI was 134 (99th%), while her VCI was 100 (50th%). FSIQ was 122. Should FSIQ have been calculated due to this 34 point discrepancy? We were surprised as she's an avid reader who's consistently been reading above grade level- she's also shy and anxious so wondering if that affected verbal scores. They do not recommend her for the gifted program (IQ requirement is 130). We are wondering if we should appeal and/or get her retested (she was so stressed about the evaluation, so I'd rather not go through that!). Her WIAT scores were superior/very superior in math and high average/superior in reading comp.
