Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Identification, Testing & Assessment Full Scale IQ Question

I noticed on the Davidson website that to gain entry into the "Young Scholars" program a full scale IQ may be a helpful score.

We have not yet tested our 4 yo but have made an appointment with a highly recommended tester who plans to administer the Stanford Binet Fourth Edition.

I thought there were three parts to this test, however, on the criteria on the website it says they need a certain score on verbal, nonverbal, or full scale IQ. Is the quantitative section factored into the full scale IQ?

Thanks.

Yes, the quantitative section is factored into the full-scale IQ. Full scale IQ represents a summary of one's performance across all sections.
