Combined with the other one, it is cryptic and drive-by, if nothing else.

Why do you want to know other people's IQ scores?

Usually people post why they want to know. We are a community who has spent years talking to each other. It’s like you walked into a room full of long time friends and asked what our kids IQ scores are without introducing yourself or telling us why you want to know.

You have a child with an ID? Do you want advice? Companionship?

Well think about how you would enter a room. Hi—my child has just been diagnosed with an ID. I don’t understand the test he was given. Does anyone have experience with the WISC and can explain what these scores mean? Or Im looking to chat with someone whose child has an I D. My child was just diagnosed and I have a lot of concerns and questions. Then list them

I'm glad you came back.  If you could be more specific about what you're looking for, we would be more able to help you.

That said, I believe that by definition, a person diagnosed with ID is going to have an IQ score of about 70 or below, and severe ID starts at around 40.   I'm pretty sure there are folks on here who have children or experience with children in this range.

With severe intellectual what level iq other kid have

IQ scores are generally considered to be very personal, so people tend not to want to share those on a public board.
 

Perhaps your local special school or infant welfare nurse can help you, since your doctor hasn't helped sufficiently.

True.

People are pretty open to saying what category their kids are in though—they are usually willing to say their kid has severe ID or mild ID if they want to give better context for their advice or information.

Special needs can affect IQ but don’t always affect IQ, so this board has people on here whose kids have a wide range of IQs from very low to profoundly gifted.
