Your are talking about
V = verbal
Q = quantitative
NV = Non-verbal?
Correct?
Are you saying you only are going to look at V and Q for giftedness??
PLEASE, please, incorporate NV as well.
Our school looks at 97% and above for any of these sections for gifted. My daughter qualified on NV. She utterly spiked there. She just missed the cut-off on Q.
There is no question this child is highly gifted.
We are talking about a child that was spelling words at 2, began spontaneously reading and writing words/sentences at 3, a child that could construct pyramids and cubes at 18m, out of geomag blocks (I was monitoring at all times due to the magnets).
At 5, she is reading at a 3rd+ grade reading level and 3rd+ grade math level.
I can not imagine her not being in a gifted program simply because someone deemed a high non-verbal as not important.
PLEASE incorproate via some method.
