Did you take that IQ test at the fourth tier night law school you went to...fka Portia's School of Law for Girls? You don't see many kids with a 135 IQ in a fourth tier law school for unwed mothers and secretaries. Especially in Boston, home to the finest law schools. Of course you have to be accepted. Oh well, you do what you have to I guess.

Anyone with an IQ of 135 would know it's "Wechsler". Even as a typo, "Weshsler" is the visual equivalent of fingernails on a blackboard to anyone with an IQ over 120.

It's the Wechsler not the Weshler. The Stanford-Binet is the gold standard of IQ testing. The Wechsler is usually given to test adults with intellectual disability......see here: ":Stanford-Binet and Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) IQs were compared for a group of 74 adults with intellectual disability (ID). In every case, WAIS Full Scale IQ was higher than the Stanford-Binet Composite IQ, with a mean difference of 16.7 points. These differences did not appear to be due to the lower minimum possible score for the Stanford-Binet. Additional comparisons with other measures suggested that the WAIS might systematically underestimate severity of intellectual impairment. Implications of these findings are discussed regarding determination of disability status, estimating prevalence of ID, assessing dementia and aging-related cognitive declines, and diagnosis of ID in forensic cases involving a possible death penalty." Don't feel bad, you did pass it.....
