Intelligence assessment

Intelligence assessment means trying to measure how smart someone is. This helps people learn about their abilities and skills and can be used for things like deciding which college someone should go to, or what job a person might be good at. To measure intelligence, people usually take a test. These tests might have questions about things like math, vocabulary, reading, and more. Some tests measure how fast you can do the questions, and other tests measure how well you understand the questions. The results from these tests can show what level of intelligence a person has, and help people figure out what kinds of things they are good at.
