The Wechsler-Individual Achievement Test was developed by David Wechsler in 2005. The test measures a person’s intelligence in four areas; reading, math, oral language, and written language. This test is administered individually and takes 30-90 minutes from start to finish. Each area is broken down into different subtests. The test is available online or with a pencil and paper. If you use the online version your score will pop-up when you are finished. If you use the pencil and paper version, the administrator will calculate your score and explain it to you. The results of this test tell you your IQ and what percentile you scored in. Additionally, your will see what grade/age level your score is compared to other people.

There is no time limit on this test but most people need 15-30 minutes to take it. This test is recommended for individuals not groups. The test is available online for roughly $50 or you can take it with a Myers-Briggs professional. If you take the test online your score will appear on the screen once you are done. If you take it with a professional, the professional will score the test and explain the results to you. The results will tell you your preference in 4 pairs of personalities. The four pairs are extraversion/introversion, sensing/intuition, thinking/feeling, and judging/perceiving. In my classroom, I will use the information from this test to create lessons that take into account all my students
