WISC score of lower to mid 130 easily nullify it.

what do u mean is wrong?


I believe the PP was referring to all the test scores/GBRS as a package resulting in no Center eligibility, and thus the parent is appealing the decision and redoing the WISC.

Verbal Comprehension Score 110
Perceptual Reasoning Score 141
Working Memory Score 113
Processing Speed Score 112

Full Scale Score 126
General Ability Index 130

Does my child has a chance on appeal based above score?


Usually at Full Scale Score 132 and above

The test gives you a lot of information. For example my daughter was Very Superior and Superior in 3 out of 4 tests. Her PSI (processing speed) was only Above Average. I think that score is less important as an
Above Average Verbal Index Score. I hope that helps.

I think a lower processing speed is normal for gifted children. Compared to the rest of the scores.

I have seen otherwise. It is good enough, in fact it is excellent. Back it up with something else tough. Work samples.

You score does not meet the bench mark, chances are not very good. My child has WISC full scale -- 134 - very superior GBRS 10, was not eligible.



Your score IS good enough. Get someone to write a letter.

Thanks for your advice. So did you try again this year?
