[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no idea if the discrepancy I am about to report to you is related to the fact that my DC is one of the youngest in her 2nd grade class.  I got flamed on another thread because I recommended WISC testing now for young 2nd graders with disappointing FAT scores.  I knew in my heart that my girl has exceptional intellectual strengths, and that her county scores (NNAT 124 and FAT 88) were underestimating her ability.  Got her WISC results today, and guess what . . . Full Scale IQ is 148, baby!  Go ahead and flame away, but now I can rest easy, knowing she will not end up bored out of her mind in general ed.  Sweet![/quote]

Regarding the fat of 88%tile, on the old system thats about a 126 and 95%tile.  An age norm would have added a few points to that but most likely not enough to get to 132, which was the nnat cutoff.  You still most likely would have to refer your kid on the old system as well.  Outside of the iq score, the 124 fat 88 to me seem very capable scores to make aap considering almost 17% of students get in.  No flaming, just pointing out you would have had to refer anyway.
