Difficulty In Writing And In Forming Letters. IQ Test Reveals WAIS Score 150. What Does It Indicate?

I am a 35 year old female. I have had my IQ tested professionally and received a WAIS III score of 150. All my life I have difficulty writing, not forming letters, but getting what is in my head on paper. I am able to articulate myself verbally very well. It's just that there seems to be some kind of disconnect between my brain and the paper. The end result is usually good but my slowness in writing has caused problems on the job and finishing my dissertation has been a nightmare. Everyone blows it off perfectionism because I'm bright but there seems to be more to it than that.

Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-IV (WAIS-IV) is an IQ test that is given by psychologists and measures global intellectual functioning.Score above 100 is above average.Below hundred is below average.You can overcome your difficulty by gradual/sustained effort and there is nothing like a slow disconnect between brain and paper.Your IQ is perfect and you are definitely capable.Do not discourage yourself.You can overcome with confidence and finish your disseration.Hope this helps.Take care.
