[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, what were your DS's scores on the verbal and perceptual sections of the WISC?  I would take the position that these scores (as opposed to the processing score) show his true abilities.  A 30 point difference in processing speed as compared to his verbal and/or perceptual score seems to point to the fact that he has a learning disability that needs to be accommodated.  If as you said he has an ADHD diagnosis, then that can help to you and the school to determine and and put in place the appropriate accommodations.  Those accommodations will level the playing field and allow your DS to show what he knows in the classroom and perform well along side his peers.

OP here: Had to go back and check but VC is 134 (Similarities is 12, Vocabulary is 16, and Comprehension is 19). Perceptual reasoning was 124 (Block Design was 19, Picture Concepts is 7, Matrix Reasoning is 15). There is indeed more than a 30 point difference between processing speed and VC.
