[quote=Anonymous]I have prepared my child for IQ-like tests. In his case, it was for a WISC-IV and I had less than one week to familiarize him with the type of questions, time factor, etc... We used a website that offered a free sample booklet and worked through the questions during the weekend. This small preparation was extremely helpful, and I believe made a significant difference to his score. This does not mean that more extensive coaching would have made more of a difference, so do not assume that your child is at a disadvantage! I know IQ tests are supposed to be un-coachable but I disagree to some extent, from personal experience and my son's. I am equally certain a great many children are prepped, especially at certain socio-economic levels. It stands to reason.[/quote]
