4.5    -    5.4       =    average

0.0    -    2.4      =    very low  

Comments:
With above average mental ability Mr. Smith "thinks on his feet" and functions to advantage where fast decisions are needed. In critical situations he looks at consequences and investigates data in depth. Intuition, a sort of "sixth sense", seems to supply him with extra information without conscious reasoning. When new or unexpected conditions arise he is able to adapt his thinking and meet and deal with changing situations without undue stress.

Content at the level of Office Manager, Mr. Smith would be satisfied to remain in this position as a reliable long-term employee. In this position, he would set high standards for himself and for his team. With strong will power, he can chart his own course and direct his own progress, unsupervised. With a sharp eye for opportunities he is able to get started without being told. Initiative compels him to get under way on projects, even if he does not particularly like the things he has to do.

Letting his achievements speak for him, Mr. Smith gets along well with little expressed recognition from his superiors. He feels confident in situations where he has prior experience but in strange circumstances experiences moments of insecurity. When forced to stay with a project, he is usually able to complete the job. This then increases his confidence in similar situations in the future.

Being exceptionally self-reliant, Mr. Smith acts on his own ideas and seldom needs support from others for his decisions. His integrity is above reproach. With his frank honesty and sincerity he would probably command the respect of his supervisors and peers.

With the ability to lead firmly and wisely, Mr. Smith can assert himself, if necessary. Most often, however, his intuitive sense helps him to avoid confrontations and elicit a spirit of cooperation from subordinates and the members of his team.

With outstanding organizational ability Mr. Smith could manage time, staff, funds and operations for maximum efficiency and synchronize the efforts of the departments under him in a productive manner. With good money sense, he is economically motivated. Achieving a better profit margin or finding new ways of turning a profit for the company would always be on his mind.

Not bound by preconceived limitations, Mr. Smith favors progress and may be instrumental in devising more efficient ways of running certain aspects of the organization.

Most the time, Mr. Smith is able to make an all-out effort to complete a project and relax afterwards. There are, however, indications that occasionally he suffers from feelings of melancholy. At such times, discouragement lessens his ability to persist and diminishes his flexibility in the face of difficulties. Unless alleviated, this could become a drain on his mental and physical energies.

Mr. Smith seems to feel more at home in the vocational world than in the social one. In social interactions he likes a degree of formality. He resents any apparent invasion of his privacy or what he considers his personal sphere. Being more ruled by his head than by his emotions, he finds it difficult to be receptive to others and their emotional needs.
Expressing himself easily in speech and writing, communication skills are among Mr. Smith's outstanding qualities. His dialogues or reports will be clear, to the point and meaningful.

Aside from the temporary feelings of discouragement, Mr. Smith is an estimable person and an intelligent one. Without doubt, he possesses the principal attributes demanded for the position of Office Manager in good measure and seems well qualified for the job. 

I. Q. INFORMATION:

I. Q. Score: 118 (± 2.5)
(Ability to learn from experience, to acquire and retain knowledge, to respond quickly and successfully to new situations, to use reason in solving problems and directing conduct).

Explanations:

I. Q.
70 - 80         mental state of borderline deficiency
80 - 90         low normal" intelligence
90 - 110       considered "normal" 
110+             generally required for college entrance
120+             classified as superior
130+             considered necessary to acquire a Ph. D.

Important:  One should be careful in using an I. Q. score as the sole indicator for a person's ability. Under stress, a person will not test as high as at another time. 
Moreover, a person with a high I. Q. may be impractical in real life situations. Therefore, I. Q. should be considered in relation to other scores.
