WISC

WISC, or the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, is a standardized assessment used to measure a child's cognitive abilities. It evaluates different areas such as verbal reasoning, problem-solving skills, memory, and processing speed. The results help educators and psychologists understand a child's intellectual strengths and challenges, guiding appropriate educational strategies and support. The test provides an overall IQ score along with detailed subtest scores, offering a comprehensive picture of a child's mental functioning in comparison to peers of the same age.
