Hello,
My DS took the Stanford-Binet5 when he was 5yrs,3months. His FS IQ was 147 (141 non-ver, 149 verbal). After doing some research on the highly gifted and talking with a few professionals, we believed mainstream elementary school would not be a good fit (working 2-3 years ahead, etc.). We ended up at a well respected Montessori school. He was pretty happy the first couple years, but now his 3rd year in Lower El. has not been good. We decided to re-test to try for a special gifted school for next year. He just took the Stanford-Binet again (same psychol.), at 8ys, 2 months his FSIQ is 131 (122 non-ver, 138 verbal). Has anyone seen a drop like this? The psychologist said that the test does get much harder for 8-9 year old level. We're frustrated and confused. Any insight would be very much appreciated!
Thank you
