[quote=Anonymous]OP, it's 15:21 again.  Dysgraphia wouldn't likely be relevant in your DS's case, since the symptoms are labored handwriting and usually poor spelling and mechanics.

You might want to look online for what types of concepts picture concepts and similarities cover, since those were your DS's lower scores.  Still, two ceiling subscores of 19 in core areas of comprehension and block design is awesome!  You could emphasize that in your parent letter to the committee.

Don't listen to the naysayers who think that 127 composite is low.  You have to look at the entire picture to see what's going on.  I bet your DS's ceiling subscores cores are much higher than subscores of many other children in AAP.  These scores show that your child is gifted, and together with the teacher observations, show that he can understand complex concepts at an advanced level. If the issue of the lower subscores comes up, that can start a dialog regarding accommodations, but I'd think the committee would agree that a child with ceiling subscores in both verbal and non-verbal areas belongs in AAP.[/quote]
