was surprised by this too esp. when reading how these scores often went to kids who scored low CogAt and who got a low GBRS (like 6) . Just made me wonder if the WISC is a multiple choice test (either you get the question right or wrong) or there is some interpretation involved by the paid tester?

Psychologist here. There are parts of the WISC that require interpretation, but it is limited. That said, I would NEVER risk my license and reputation by inflating scores. Totally unethical and not worth it.

I agree it is unethical but don't think it would hurt your reputation - or income.
What bothers me are the posts on here touting the WISC as being a panacea for the AAP admissions problem that are made by psychologists or employees of their trade association but who do not identify themselves as such.
