[quote=Anonymous]The WISC is normed for children who have not seen that type of problem before. It has not been normed for children who have already practiced problems of that type; thus kids who prep will receive an artificially high score. You also aren't allowed to take a WISC more than once per year, since familiarity with the questions will also produce an artificially high score. If the psychologist administering the test thinks your child has been prepped, (s)he will state in the report that the results are not valid. It is completely different from the SAT, for which there is no expectation of "taking it cold". A WISC could not be administered via scantron, since not all of the questions are multiple choice, and many require the child to explain answers. [/quote]
