Puffin,
I should not have had anything in my mouth when I read that. Actually, it should have been + or - 40.
Since we know that these tests are unreliable at that age, it is silly to rely on them. What they should determine is if the child is ready to learn reading and math in a more structured environment. If they teach the kids to read and do math, then it seems like that's what they should test for that kind of readiness and not try to pretend that they are testing someone's IQ and use knowledge questions.
