Mr. and Mrs. Livingstone are concerned because two-year-old Charles just completed the Toddler Test of Academic Potential (TTAP) and the results indicate that his current IQ is just under 80 . They had started a college savings fund, and now they don't know whether they should continue the contributions since Charles will likely never attend college. You should tell Mr. and Mrs. Livingstone that:
a. Charles' IQ will probably not stabilize until he is at least 14 or 15, so he will need to be tested again, once he is in high school
b. typically IQ scores from toddlerhood double, so Charles' actual IQ is probably closer to 160
c. typically IQ scores from toddlerhood decrease even further, so Charles should be enrolled in a special education program as soon as possible
d. before the age of 3 or 4, it is difficult to get an accurate assessment of intellectual ability
