1 Answer 1. I was in the same situation a year ago. It took me about 4 weeks to receive my Passport in the mail. Keep in mind, that you will need to send your original birth certificate with your passport application so you will be without that while you wait. According to Consular Affairs, it takes 4-6 weeks for routine service but you can opt for expedited service.
Technically speaking, the first IQ test was developed by French psychologist, Alfred Binet in 1905. His test has provided the base for all modern IQ tests that are widely used today. However, the interest of scientists and psychologists in intelligence dates back to thousands of years.
Any score above 100 was above average, while any score below 100 was below average. American psychologist Lewis Terman revised this test into a more compatible one suited for people of all age groups. Terman changed the concept of a mental age in Stern's Binet test scoring system into a standardized IQ score.He was the first person to coin the term intelligence quotient. Thus, the term IQ was also born. Terman's first standardized test was published in 1916 and was called as the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale.owever, the history of IQ test doesn't end here as the term IQ or intelligence quotient was not born yet. We had just got the test but not the name. The idea that a test could actually determine a child's mental age became enormously popular and eminent scientists and psychologists started studying it.
