[quote=Anonymous]So the WPSSI operates on a bell curve, with the 50th percentile being a FSIQ of 100. Obviously that would be a national curve. DC is probably the most educated region in the country, with self-selected private school applicants being even further to the right of the curve. That said, it seems on this board that most kids in the area are scoring in the 80s or 90s on this test, if not in the 95th+. I wonder if part of this might just be the generous nature of many testers, in addition to the fact that most kids sitting for it are objectively bright due to genes and environment. Does any kid ever score in the 50th percentile and have it NOT explained away as a bad day, horrible tester, etc? [/quote]
