[quote=Anonymous]I agree with 13:32. Both my kids tested in the 99th percentile at age 4. One is at the top of her class; the other is not. Both are bright kids, but neither one is highly gifted or has required acceleration or enrichment beyond what their schools provide. I think there is substantial grade inflation mixed in with the innate unreliability of such tests. So, it's wonderful when your kid gets a high score, but unless you've already noticed that your child is inadequately challenged, I don't think there's any need to change your approach. (Note: I am not questioning the existence of highly or profounded gifted children. I'm just saying that a high WPPSI score alone is probably inadeqaute grounds for concluding that someone belongs in that category.)[/quote]
