Moderate 7 - 9
Mild 10 - 12
Borderline normal 13 - 15
Average normal 16 and above

29
Q

Descriptive scoring: time delay, self correcting, probe, perseveration, intelligibility

30
Q

RBANS scoring

A

Raw score, total score, Index scores, Percentile

Severity ratings:
-130+ very superior
-90-109 Avg
-69 below “extremely low”
