Agreed. The wikipedia page on IQ classification shows many tables which relate various IQ ranges to descriptive terminology for each range.

Even though the verbage associated with each test (WISC vs WJ-III Cog) is different, I thought they both followed (in theory) a normal distribution centered on 100 with a standard deviation of 15, which means the WJ-III GIA should be comparable to the WISC FSIQ. I am hoping aeh will see this and let us know if there is in fact a difference in how the scores are distributed smile
