DS (will be 6 in April) took the SB-V last August with a psych who specializes in gifted kids. His results were a FSIQ of 139 with a hard ceiling in Fluid Reasoning (19- scaled score 144) and according to the psych, a soft ceiling of 17 a few other categories.

We've decided to go ahead and do achievement testing in the next few months and we'd like a test that DYS would accept. We're going to move schools and use achievement testing either for a place to start with the new school for accomodations. Should DS score in the DYS range, we either have him take the WISC or apply with achievement/portfolio scores. We want to get a very solid estimate beyond our interpretation- since his school has done nothing.

Anybody have a specific recommendation for a very verbal, pencil-resistant, kid who likes to build legos but scores lower than expected in visual/spatial?
