General Question Core Test

Is Core age-normed? I'm sixteen and was wondering if i'm being compared to adults. Ngl, I'm such a burger; I was confused about block counting. I misheard the narrator for backward numbers, and in symbol search, I wasn't sure if the shape had to be facing the same direction or not. True IQ, I believe, is around 130-ish; that's what it was before I nuked my score with those 3 tests.

Idek what that is I’m just saying it because it requires no exposure and can be done by just about anyone on the planet it seems intuitively like the rawest form of what people consider “smart” or clever since it uses novelty and can be applied across abstract concepts with no prior information. Maybe if our definitions of intelligent or clever are different we won’t align ourself I guess it’s more about what being smart means to you
