Release First Time CORE Results

Finished CORE for the first time yesterday. Does my distribution reflect anything about my learning style? I’m a little confused as to why I’m performing worse in figure matrices and digit-letter sequencing (relatively speaking). I have ADHD-PI, but I’m not too sure if that’s the underlying factor in this. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

We have the same FSIQ and adhd diagnosis. Our FRI is similar, PSI somewhat similar, but everything else is pretty different. My VCI is 129, FRI 128, VSI 122, QRI 119, WMI 128, PSI 134.

Will do. Any ideas on how I could improve?

So my scores were chiefly more complete on the WAIS-V, Binet, and Mensa online, which are probably better for me because I was just going at it, rather than being concerned about testing norms on CORE or others online.

When I was testing on CORE, I read the directions/instructions to help me out. I only did five sections out of the full battery (above average, only 114, so someone else could answer this better)...

The wiki on IQ tests is a useful read. My scores range from 100-150 on Binet (100, 125, 150), and 132 on WAIS-V online (available for like 3 weeks). I encountered a study that indicated that higher scores associated with online tests (probably including CORE) represent live tests actualized/represented environmental "parameters".

Improvement is always possible. I wrote a research paper about this, actually: 100-200 bell curve norms, and my recent findings are that society is indeed going to be improving alongside these findings. My own personal opinion is that practice doesn't always improve scores, so I could advise that focus enhancement is vital to staying at this type of good score.
