This is especially problematic if they use a group "IQ" test, like the CogAt for example, to collect the data.
There is a hella difference between a 145 on the WISC IV and a 145 on the CogAt.
Oh yes, 'Neato!!! We had the gifted teacher at DS's school present us with the WISC-IV data at the acceleration meeting last year and comment that DS's WISC-IV and CogAt tests agreed, since they were very close. It was a brush off comment, as in "nothing new here" with the WISC-IV data. And this was from the person who was supposedly trained to teach gifted kids!!
