1.)
She got an A.

The problem with IQ tests is it, that they are based on
the social background/experience and language. This becomes
a problem, if one tries to evaluate children who come
out of disadvantaged groups or have a different mother tongue
- - with dyslexia not uncommon.
Stanford-Binet is NOT without that bias.
Example:
"What tool does an hacker need?"
- -- mouse
- -- hoe
- -- keyboard
- -- computer
- -- hack
- -- white hat
- -- black hat
- -- none of the above
And what would the intelligent child
of a Brazilian woodcutter answer?
