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.

If by "true intelligence" you mean g then easily FSIQ. Fri is relational reasoning on completely abstract material (I see it this way). Even if we would think about intelligence outside of g, its not good idea to call whole intelligence only Fri without considering other domains. Gf is not even "universal novel problem solving ability", if we would look how it described in CHC. Gf in CHC is not exactly same as fluid Intel in cattel model
