Summary
A study from 1993 indicates that child IQ scores are not static and can change over time, challenging the notion that they are definitive measures of intelligence.
This variability in IQ scores suggests that relying solely on these metrics may not accurately forecast a child's future success.
Historical figures like Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was a child prodigy, further complicate traditional views on intelligence and achievement.
