You'll eventually stop rolling 1s.

| I'm afraid I wouldn't clap them under any circumstances. When I was a child I went to all these assessments, was put on a vile diet for years and all because the doctor was doing a thesis on my condition and how diet affected it. HE DIDN'T GIVE A DIAGNOSIS! Had he done so I might've got the support... |

| ^who is this guy’s audience? 12-15yo boys? Hard to take him seriously at all as a journalist when the language he uses sounds like he’s trying to appeal to rebellious teenagers. Considering the network he's on, I think he's aiming for an audience that have never matured beyond 12-15, even though th... |

Well, the really short answer is: flexibility . Sometimes the texture that best communicates the feeling the compos... |

| Were the sections on both IQ tests the same? (Were they testing for the same kinds of abilities?) I heard there are different sections, such as language, verbal, etc. Some people can be wildly disproportionate The final number you're given is an average of those sections. Some people have very larg... |

| Bear in mind, part of the reason orchestras tend to have multiples of the same instrument, playing the same part is because they didn't have the option to mic-up and just turn the PA system up louder. Beyond that, the whole array of instruments will be playing parts that compliment each other, if on... |

But then at age 14 a neuropsychologist measure my IQ again and I got 106. I mean, is that possible? because if so ... |
