Cym or anyone - I just read the article you linked to. It's using the old table since it is my understanding that the current IQ tests don't go above 160, is that correct? I've read the new chart on Hoagies for the WISCIV for MG 130-138, HG 138-145, etc and that seems to be published by a reputable psych. I've seen a few threads discounting Deb Ruff's chart on the SBV.
I also saw reference to this on a blog of a GT teacher where someone posted to keep in mind that the IQ numbers now are lower.
I think Dh sees DS's IQ and thinks, we'll it's close to mind so he should be fine, I did fine but I tried to tell him you can't compare an IQ today of one 20+ years ago.
I wonder how they calculate mental age based on IQ? In the article, Paula w/ IQ of 133 has a mental age of around 12. A friend said the psych said something similar - ie w/ VCI in 140s the kid can process information like a 6th grader but is stuck in a 2nd grade classroom. I'd like to find an article that talks about that to show to DH.
