[quote=Anonymous]13:51 I am very very surprised that your child did not get in with those scores and a GBRS of 15. You all may be interested in the Harcourt report compiling the WISC profile of gifted children. It was something like VCI 126 PRI 120 WMI 117 and PSI 108. They are finding that gifted children average VCI/PRI scores in the low to mid 120's on the WISC-IV (earlier versions were around 130 for gifted groups), and that the gifted kids do not work any faster than average IQ kids (hence, the average PSI scores). I have to believe that the county people making the decisions are aware of these statistics, and that is why they value high VCI/PRI scores over WMI/PSI. In short, if your child's VCI/PRI scores match his or her her CogAT/NNAT scores (in the mid-120's) I can't see why s/he wouldn't be eligible with the awesome GBRS 15. My two cents.[/quote]
