To piggy back regarding bassetlover�s comments regarding age and group testing;
My son didn�t have the group iq test until age 10/5th and did quite well by then; however, his TerraNova scores were lower across the board in 2nd.
One score that seemed really incorrect was the science score in 2nd. He has always demonstrated aptitude in that area so we were a little confused becuase it was by far the lowest on his report - until we read that the science subject test had been read to the students who then were required to select the answer pictorially! Throw in the fact that this was only 2nd grade material and it is no wonder that our son couldn�t bring it down to that level.
