Quote from second: "So, does this make you smarter if you are bilingual? I’m afraid not. I don't know any study that shows a link between bilingualism and such concepts as executive intelligence, emotional intelligence or intelligence quotient."

I agree that testing IQ at 6 isn't super useful; scores at that age can absolutely be strongly influenced by the environment.  By 12 they're much more stable and by early adulthood they're pretty much fixed.  IQ also becomes more heritable as you get older.  That's why promising gains in IQ from early interventions always fade out.[/quote]
