[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. For one thing there is no place to put IQ in the application. Schools don’t ask after Early elementary. Since the kids are older IQ is reflected in grades, recommendations from teachers, English, Math, etc, test scores, extracurriculars and personal statement/essays. Schools look at the whole package to get a good sense about the individual.[/quote] I thought most private schools require the WISC, Woodcock-Johnson, or similar test as part of the admissions package?? Those provide an IQ score. [/quote] Yes, most schools do require tests. Those will be one component. Schools will also look at classroom performance, executive functioning, behavior/cooperation. It's a whole package. I don't think they'd particularly care about high IQ by itself. They want well-rounded kids who are a good fit with the rest of the class.[/quote]
