IQ and Achievement Testing | Part 3

What are Achievement and IQ tests?

These tests are nationally standardized tests which means they compare a student's performance against other students from across the country of the same age or grade. These instruments are individually administered, so they are usually more reliable then group administered tests that are given by the majority of the school districts and private schools. Some of the more common tests used are the Wechsler Intelligence Scales for Children – 4, Woodcock Johnson Tests of Cognitive Abilities, Wechsler Individual Achievement Test – II, Woodcock Johnson Tests of Achievement – III.
