Are you a child psychologist who administers this test?

Please share where you obtained this information, it's interesting.[/quote]

If you google a bit about the ERB you will find some Bell Curves which graph %ile , stanine,raw score and FSIQ all together under one bell curve. Looking at the Independent school norm it shows that the largest cohort in the independent schools scores in a stanine range that correlates with a FSIQ in 120's, the kids who score in the 8th and 9th stanine are in the top 10% of their class and this correlates with 135 FSIQ and higher. The public school norm( bulk of scores) is a full 1-2 standard deviations lower. That doesn't mean public schools don't have bright kids, it just means that in private schools they are more a dime a dozen( more the bulk of the scores). Sorry I don't know the exact site, but it isn't hard to find if you just google: ERB,stanine,percentiles

You can also just feel this should you decide to be the parent reader one morning before you have had your coffee. [/quote]

Interesting. Thanks for posting this.

Ignore the troll.[/quote]

Someone got your number, huh?

The ERBs are an achievement test, not strictly an IQ test, so some of the same caveats about the impact of an enriched education or home environment would apply.[/quote]
