[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, this is 15:21 again.  Did your evaluator give you any insight into the subscores?  19 on block design is the ceiling - that is certainly gifted.  But 7 on picture concepts is low average and dragged down the overall perceptual score.  What did your evaluator say about the spread?  Do they think this is because of the processing and attention issues, or could there be some other issue?  Was any other educational testing done or recommended?  Does your DS do alright in all core areas - reading, writing, spelling and math?  (Our DS had similar overall WISC scores - although not the large spread - and presents with slow writing/processing.  He was recently diagnosed with dysgraphia.)[/quote]

OP again: no, nobody really told us anything and we were left trying to decipher it on our own. The school offered a makeup cogat (he was ill and didn't take it the first time it was offered). But no results in yet on that makeup cogat. I don't know what picture concepts are. If I knew what it was I could tell you why he had such difficulty with it. The only thing I've been told by his teacher is that he reads at the highest level possible based on their DRA scale. He did get the highest number of correctly spelled words in the first grade on their Great American Spell Check contest. He is also in the highest level math class. Teacher describes remarkable comprehension also. I don't know why there's such a large spread in his scores. As far as we know he has ADHD and also some sensory issues. What is dysgraphia btw?[/quote]
