You could, however, take a kid and familiarize them with the kids of questions, just like we do for kids for the SAT, and maybe they will get a couple of points higher, at most. This idea that your kid will be struggling to keep up if you prep them and they do well is just silliness, IMO.

It's not cheating. Cheating is knowing the answers and having the kids memorize it. Prepping is knowing that the test has block design and giving them those blocks to play with.


Spoken like a cheater.

Sat prep, SSAT prep, ISEE prep are very different from prepping for an IQ test.
It is considered cheating, OP. You shouldn't do it.

+1 Especially when actual test items are practiced.

What you've just described--practicing test items-- is cheating.
