IQ testing in children

Sauce bruh

i swear it's true. I got placed into some shitty GATE program, and everything.

note that I didn't take the advanced matrices, only the normal progressive matrices. I was worried about having cognitive issues last year, so I requested my RAVEN scores and I apparently tested into the 99th percentile, and I had to do a triple-take because I couldn't believe the archivist. There's a small possibility that my parents had me study beforehand, since the RAVEN is fairly susceptible to practice, but I just can't remember.

Lately, in the IQ tests that Veeky Forums posts, like the mensa.no one and the iqtest.dk, I only get scores of 102 - 110 max.

Not science.

also, I'm extrapolating based on my absolutely beyond shit SAT scores.

Yeah, it's kind of a funny phenomenon. IQ appears to be highly malleable by environment in the early years, yet it returns to something more closely predicted by one's parent's intelligence in adulthood -- i.e. your genes are probably the greatest factor.
