He did even better, that's top 1/4.

Generally "big 3" schools are looking for 85th percentile (roughly fsiq of 120) or better.

Was you DS scores even? I agree with the prior post but if your kid is in preschool you might want to find out if he is grasping the concepts. If he did well on the voc and not on the sections that require motor skills get him tested so that you are more prepared to get a yes from the schools where you applied. If the scores are even and he has developed normally thus far you probably will not have an issue getting him in most places.
