For norming, used are tests correlating .79 or higher. Raw and prior scores are arranged in two columns of numerical order, the highest raw score facing the highest prior IQ (prior scores are if needed converted to an IQ scale with 15 points per standard deviation), etc. For each raw score, the median of the IQs facing it is used to norm that score. Scores 48 to 52 are extrapolated.

Robustness and overall test quality

Item analysis

Item statistics are not published as that would help future candidates. To detect bad items, answers and comments from candidates are studied, as well as, for each problem, the correlation with total score (validity of the item in this test) and the proportion of candidates getting it wrong (hardness of the item). Possible bad items are removed or revised, resulting in a revised version of the test.
