Gifted evaluations are recommended when a child demonstrates advanced learning abilities. These assessments help determine whether the child would benefit from a more challenging academic program, such as placement in a gifted program.
The following standardized intelligence tests are available depending on the child’s age:
- Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence (WPPSI-III)
- Wechsler Intelligence Test for Children-Fourth Edition (WISC-IV)
