Hi all,

I know this question has been asked before, but I'll ask again!

Our ds10 was tested last fall using the WISC-IV and got widely diverging scores.:

VCI

similarities 18
Vocabulary 18
Comprehension 13

PRI

Block Design 11
Picture Concepts 14
Matrix Reasoning 14

WMI

Digit Span 13
Letter-Number 12

Processing

Coding 6
Symbol Search 8

I have always felt him to be a LOG of 4, and this holds true even after this assessement.

What do these scores mean??? How can a boy who learns as easily as breathing and doesn't forget ANYTHING get such low working memory and processing speeds??

He was Top of the Country on the SCAT math when he was 8 (he missed one question - only two in verbal) and is currently at about the 11th grade or so according to the Lexile screen. Even though he's in a Gifted school, he hasn't learned much academically this year that I can tell.

If more testing were done, would the SB5 be a more useful instrument?

thanks for reading, and I know this is a familiar question.
