    This is supposed to quantify intelligence but how are these criteria quantified? Seems like the same fundamental issue

      I don’t know, when I got tested it seemed like they were testing the right stuff.

      I’m pretty sure it’s a well-made test that provides fairly accurate results. Even if what they claim to be measuring in each category isn’t reflected in the test, it is, at the very least measuring the abilities required to take the test and that exactly.

      It seems pretty straightforward to see how good a kid is at solving a puzzle, right?
