[quote=Anonymous]OP, the low processing speed can also impact the WISC. My son has an overall wisc of 119, but with very low processing speed and large gaps in subtests (from 98% to 37%). He is also diagnosed with non verbal learning disorder and adhd. It might be worth getting her evaluated for a specific learning disability. It wont change her profile, but it may help her and you understand her strengths and address her weaknesses with specific strategies. I too worry about my son a lot (I come from a family of phds and academics so excelling at school has been a given). But my worries for him revolve around his social skills and overall happiness and his ability to get along with others and have good self esteem. A lot of successful people are not brilliant and a lot of brilliant people are not successful. (In many ways, I'm happier and more successful than my brother, who has an iq of 150 and finished a phd in computational physics at 25). [/quote]
