      The details of the bell curve are as follows:

      The standard scores range from below 70 to above 130.

      Sara’s reading and Math is seen in scores below 70 to 100, and Sara’s FSIQ is seen from scores 100 to above 130.

      Percent of Cases:

      2.2% at standard scores below 70, Quantitative description extremely low.

      6.7% at standard scores 70 to 80, Quantitative description very low.

      16.1% at standard scores 80 to 90, Quantitative description low average.

      50% at standard scores 90 to 110, Quantitative descriptions average.

      16.1% at standard score 110 to 120, Quantitative descriptions high average.

      6.7% at standard scores 120 to 130, Quantitative description very high.

      2.2% at standard scores above 130, Quantitative description extremely high.

      The illustration is described as follows:

      Three dartboards have 5 levels of concentric circles, from inside to outside.

      The first dartboard titled Low Reliability and Validity shows three arrows in level 3 and 4.

      The second dartboard titled High Reliability and Low Validity shows all the three arrows around the same point in level 5.

      The third dartboard titled High Reliability and Validity shows all the three arrows around the same point in level 1.
