I kind of get what you are saying. So my question is, we all think of an extreme IQ score is anywhere above 155, or at least I do. Did anyone score there on the new WISC? If not, what is the new extreme score? is it 145?
Do I care?
Yes, because my DD8 FSIQ is 148 on WISC-IV and the school is going to say, "It's not like she has an IQ in the 150's or 160's or anything!"
Let's get a perspective on what the scores for this test mean, so the educational system doesn't underestimate these kids' needs based on the old SB's number scale.
And maybe someone has evidence that shows, yeah, those kids that were getting 170's on the SB are still getting 160 on WISC-IV, but I haven't seen it. On the contrary, the norming sample seems to indicate the number would come in lower.
Does that make sense?
Or am I borrowing trouble.
