Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Identification, Testing & Assessment DYS Qualifying WJA-III Scores, but Not SBI, 5th ?

HI mom2sofia - I'm sure Dottie will have the info you seek!!!

But I'll attempt the DYS criteria.

From the DYS website on the WJIII qualifications:

Woodcock-Johnson III Test of Achievement (WJ-III):
Standard score 145+ (99.9th percentile): Broad Reading, Broad Math, Broad Written Language cluster(s) or Total Achievement

So she qualifies based on her Broad Math score of 154!!!

Looking at an IQ chart here http://www.iqcomparisonsite.com/IQtable.aspx I would think 2.5std dev is mid-way between 130 and 145.

But for DYS, you need 145 in verbal, non-verbal or FS.
