We have three dcs. #1 and #2 scored 99x3. Dh and I also scored 99x3. Will dc#3 also score the same? Is intelligence genetic? WDYT [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

Why? We remember which schools we applied to and we remembered the test. It is like anything else in childhood that you share. [ Reply | More

Sure, you don't remember anything from 4yo? Some people do and some don't I guess. I remember the woman and the room. I also remembered the way it smelled and how there were a lot of crying children. [ Reply | More

Children are all different. Just think about it for a second. Don't we all know families with three children where one is black sheep. It happens quite often. Now, on to intelligence. Yes, it is closely related to the moms. But, things happen. Few things in life are guaranteed. [ Reply | More

Sure why not. We inherit hair color and nose shape from parents why not brains. [ Reply | More

Siblings are generally within 10 IQ points of one another. So the eight ball says most likely. [ Reply | More

10 IQ points is a LOT. It's the difference between a 99 and a score in the 80s. [ Reply | More

that's untrue -- eg, on the SB-V, an IQ of 135 will correlate to a 99.0% while an IQ 10 points lower -- a 125 -- will correlate to a 95.2% -- just 3ppts lower. [ Reply | More

hate to burst your bubble but I know lots of families in which one child is an academic laggard. BTW: that child often winds up being the happiest and most successful. I'm sure that whatever #3 gets, s/he will turn out fine. [ Reply | More
