You can't prep for an IQ test. Why is this so hard for people to understand. WISC is not like the CogAT or NNAT. There are no prep courses!
Of course you can, and of course there are prep courses. That's why you aren't supposed to take the same type of IQ test more than once a year, because taking them too close together has a similar effect to prepping.
As for how many 2nd graders prep for an IQ test, I don't think it's very many. But I have no real way of knowing.

Just 1 week to screen all the appeals? That doesn't seem like a lot of time?
There aren't as many appeals as there were original files to review. How much time do you think they should get?
