usually between 130 and 132 for the second grade pool -- which is NOT the same as AAP placement.

What were the benchmarks in years past for AAP?

Thanks so much....you all have put my mind at ease which is a good thing!! I really appreciate the input. This process is surprisingly stressful! All the best to the kind folks who helped me navigate this question!

I think there has been discussion in the past about this very thing actually and I want to say a lot of kids with higher FSIQ have wmi that aren't in line with the rest of the scores. They also say VCI and PRI are the 2 most important indicators on the WISC. So I wouldn't overly stress about it, besides the fact that there is nothing you can do about it. Those are high scores.

My DC is in AAP with similar scores, combined with a relatively high GBRS (15).

Just checked DC's scores -- vci 152, pri 131, wmi 107, psi 100

I don't follow. AAP is actually more like 18% of the FCPS students, but what did you write to your congressman about? And are you implying that helped your kid get into AAP?
