Two years ago sean took an intelligence test and earned a score of 99. recently he took the same test and earned a score of 102. yet at school sean earns straight-a grades, and his teachers consider him to be an outstanding student. given what you've learned about intelligence tests and iq scores, choose the most likely explanation for the apparent discrepancy between sean's iq score and school performance.

a. sean probably gets support for academic achievement from family and friends and is motivated to do well at school.

b. school grades are notoriously poor measures of school achievement; sean's iq scores are better indicators of what he has learned at school.

c. sean must have been feeling poorly both times that he took the test, because iq scores are generally very accurate predictors of children's school grades.

d. intelligence tests and school grades measure such different abilities that the discrepancy does not require any explanation.

Two years ago Sean took an intelligence test and earned a score of 99 and recently earned a score of 102. Yet at school Sean earns straight-A grades. The apparent discrepancy between Sean's IQ score and school performance is because Intelligence tests and school grades measure such different abilities that the discrepancy does not require any explanation.

Explanation:

Grading in the school process is a method used to assess and categorize student achievement .

The classification of the IQ is the practice of classifying the score obtained in IQ tests with categorical labels, however it is proven that it is not the only thing that determines the success of a person. The intellectual quotient is an estimator of the general intelligence resulting from some of the standardized tests designed for this purpose. It is considered that the human brain is complex enough to not be able to measure intelligence with a single factor. The standard IQ test measures how smart a person is, traditionally, based on math or language. All other areas in which a person can excel or have natural capacity are not taken into consideration.

glass wants to live in a world of super heroes and villains. he have lived all his life trying to be responsible for the creating the origin story of a super hero; he schemed and caused many incidents (many of them fatal) hoping that someday someone with superpowers would show up and save the day.

he knew himself very much. he saw himself as a villain of a real-life super hero story. he was aware of his strengths (more than smart enough for being manipulative and scheming) and weaknesses (having fragile bones and having to rely on his mind to succeed).
