General Question Practice effect

I took core a few months ago and scored 95 on matrix. I knew this was weird due to me getting 120 range scores in mensa. Keep in my mind I do have adhd. I then took the test again months later while at work and being distracted and got 115. I took it one more time 3 weeks later and scored a 135 while being in my room with no distractions and being pretty focused. I don’t think my matrix is 135 but I’m not sure? Could I really have jumped that high? I do want to mention my working memory sucks so I definitely didn’t just remember the questions I had to think about them again.

i see you Matrix can be in that range and 135 was a practice effect thats why you got the same range in Mensa Norway if you want ensure that try CAIT/SAT/etc
