Scott Douglas Jacobsen: These are the mainstream tests that are administered by professional psychologists.
Rick Rosner: Stanford-Binet, the WISC — the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, which turns into the WAIS — the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, there are a few others like that. Those are individually administered tests. With a license professional, they ask you questions. Then there are group administered tests that are created by professional testing companies that have a tighter range that are used in school to see if kids are dumb or smart enough to merit special consideration and kids scoring under 90 or under 80 on an IQ test.
Maybe, that kid needs special help. Similarly, if a kid is scoring over 120 or 130 on an IQ test. Maybe, you put that kid in the gifted class or maybe you give the parents working with the kid the choice to do some gifted junk.
