    I had the same problem, 'Neato. Though I was about 20 points off on the WJ-III, since he took that before he took any IQ test.

    We're not bad moms, we're just GT-clueless. Big difference!

    Since I know my own IQ, I guessed that DS would be close to that and I was right smile

    Well Dottie, DD6 may be taking the WISC for school this year. If I see what your looking for, I'll absolutely sent it to you!

    Gratified: Believe it! That's what those people get paid the big bucks for, right!
    I've learned that if either of my children believe they can do something, even if I'm sure there is no way, I just get out of their way!

    Well if DD6 takes the WISC it will be by the expert we've worked with already. You think at this stage of the game I would let the school do it?!?!?!?!?

    But if it will make you feel any better, I can have him e-mail you. wink

    MOST high PSI scores are 138! I keep hoping for a data point on either side, and it's always 138 again, ROFL! PSI is the only list that I didn't get with my "freebie", frown . [/quote]

    My dd's PSI score was her highest on the WISC IV. You can use her number for your data grin

    Sorry Dottie,

    You are right. I was confusing that with what her tester called "performance" score. Her PSI was only 135.

    Is that the sum of scaled scores? If so, yes. I am not sure what are the subtests that are used for that?

    The tester made a mistake. Those two only add up to 32 (16 on symbol search and 16 (raw score 40) and 16 on coding (raw score 62). 16+16=32, but she has the sum of scaled scores listed as 33. How would that change her PSI?
