Scott Douglas Jacobsen: From Bryan McFarland:

Good Afternoon,

I’m writing to inquire about your willingness to compare my results of the LAIT (1979) with yours as an analog for scoring the test. Despite there being evidence of the answers being leaked online in the 1990s, I can’t find them now. What’s my IQ? I honestly don’t know. I scored 99th percentile in spatial relations on a high school aptitude test in 1992 or 1993. I’ve rarely had to apply myself to study in college. I grasp complex concepts almost effortlessly. – So anyway, I found the questions for the old LAIT and it was right up my alley. And if you’re willing to either share your answers with me or look at mine for comment, that would be great. As an FYI, I worked on the test each morning for 4 days which took about 8-10 hours of mental wrangling. Thank You.

Rick Rosner: You may have written to me before, and I’m supposed to dig up my old answers. I haven’t done so yet, and I’m not sure I can—this was 45 years ago—but I will make a concerted effort to find them at some point.
