Prep for an IQ test?????

[Anonymous]

On the AAP application. Parental form. Talk about how DC prepped for the test. How smart they were for that. See how well it goes. If you are not willing to admit it, you know you are cheating.


+1. I agree with this. If you are OK with test prep, please include it on the form.

I am also ok with sex-prep should I also include this on the AAP form to see how well it goes?

Now, that's really cheating.

If the questions being studied in advance are so similar that only a few words have been changed, it is essentially the same as seeing the test itself.

Someone who has studied the questions on several practice tests is exhibiting a different kind of intelligence than someone who can look at a puzzle or problem for the first time and solve it quickly. It illustrates one area of intelligence to be able to study and memorize how to solve a type of problem; the person who looks at problem s/he has never seen before and solves it quickly and easily is exhibiting a different area of intelligence.

It is not my objective as a parent to educate bumbling AAP bureaucrats about the neurophysiology of intelligence and the various and sundry ways neural axon connections form in the developing brain via numerous stimuli (including reading, problem solving, and test-prepping exercises). These individuals do not have the capacity to understand the milieu and the underlying mechanistic cell-to-cell crosstalk laying down pathways of human intelligence. This would be a pure waste of my time and effort. Therefore, I will not use the AAP application process for this effort as you suggest.

So you admit your kid is cheating. Nice.

Most people don't prep for the test. Maybe 10% prep. It might be 50-60 % in some ethnic groups, but not in the majority of households in FCPS.

For example, Anglo-European?

I don't know. I don't see test prep books in Giant, Wegmens, or Whole Foods....

I know many that work hard year round and test prep without the actual test. I have no clue what you are talking about.

Can you provide the evidence base/data for your conclusion? Your critical thinking disability would hardly qualify for a seat in AAP even with the advantage of your advanced age.

My, you are intelligent looking for books in a food store. Don't bother with test-prep. You are hopeless.

I don't shop in asian grocery stores like you seem to enjoy and thrive. But, when you get back to your grocery store I hope you appreciate the poor intellectual thrash in the checkout lines. This poor, intellectual, thrash apparently suits minds like yours.

I agree, the reading material in these checkout lanes appeals to the lowest intellectual capacity and quotient. I'm not sure what the poster without anal sphincter is so proud of. It sounds like reading material in these check out lanes provide the data and evidence to support her dcummie drivel. Not AAP quality.

We're Irish and believe in preparation and hard work. She must be talking about us.

Yes, show your honesty. Add intercourse dates and delivery details to convince them your child has raw unprepped intelligence.

Dodged a bullet. Since I don't shop or buy books at the Chinese grocery store I'm off the hook according to the the anti-prep saint. I'm not a cheater by her metrics.

Try Barnes & Nobles or Amazon. Easier to find books in a bookstore than a grocery store.
