| 725086 | 2008-12-03 01:22:00 | My son scored relatively high on his I.Q and his percentile was rather high too but didn't really help him much. Too be honest though, until I had the test done and talked to a few "professionals" his demeanor socially, emotionally and physically was unexplainable to me and his teachers. I do think that him having the tests, did make me more aware of what his needs were not only educationally but personally as well. As a non brilliant mind myself, I do think that I.Qs are not a great indication of brilliance or at least I try to tell myself that everyday so as not to feel too humbled by the fact that my sons I.Q is extremely likely to be waaaaay higher than mine. ;) |

| 725087 | 2008-12-03 01:48:00 | I have done quite a few online IQ tests, in an attmept to see if they gave the same answers. Seems to be pretty similar, and I'm supposedly smarter than Helen Clark, which is comforting. :thumbs: Don't really believe them though. |
