The Resquites Register of Verified Scores
A public list of people's best scores at the Resquites High-Range Tests. The test author checks every score against its certificate before it is listed, and each one links to its certificate on the Verify page, so that anyone can check it. The Resquites Composite IQ, one score from every attempt at three tests or more, is listed with them.
The Register
Listed with their Composite IQ first, then by their highest score. Each score is the best verified result of that person at that test; follow its certificate ID to check it.

What you can apply for
A listing
US$100, once. The author reviews your certificates and lists your best verified score at each test you have taken, with your name and country.
An update
US$25 an update. A test you take later, or a higher score at a test already listed, is reviewed and added to your listing.
The Resquites Composite IQ
US$100. One score from every attempt you made at three tests or more, with its own certificate (an RC- ID anyone can check on the Verify page) and its line in the Register.
No annual dues. If the author cannot accept an application, its fees are refunded in full. A listing stays until you ask for it to be taken down.
How the Composite IQ is computed
- Every attempt counts. Each test's score is the mean IQ of all your attempts at it, first and later attempts alike, as their certificates give it now. An attempt without an IQ (below a test's floor, or not completed) cannot be placed on the scale and is left out, and the author sees it in the review.
- The tests are combined as composite scores are. The standard scores of the tests, z = (IQ − 100) / 15, are added, and the sum is divided by its standard deviation, √(k + k(k − 1)r), with r = .75 taken as the correlation between any two of the tests (Tellegen and Briggs, 1967; the way the composite scores of the Wechsler scales are formed). Being at the same level on several tests is rarer than on one, so a composite lies further from 100 than the tests' mean.
- Never above the highest test score it combines. The Composite IQ claims no level that no single test measured. A score at a test's ceiling makes it a lower bound, shown as “or more”.
- A 95% range. Each attempt is taken as a score of reliability .90; the errors of a test's attempts average out, and those of the tests add up in the composite.
For example, IQ 130, 145 and 160 at three tests give a Composite IQ of 149 (95% range 143 to 155); IQ 145 at each of three tests gives 145 (139 to 145). It needs attempts at three different tests or more. Like every score of these tests, it comes from unsupervised online results, scored on provisional norms where a test has no norming sample yet.

Give the certificate of your best result at each test. Certificates taken with the email you give here are matched to you at once; one taken with another email is checked by the author.
Questions
What is the Resquites Register?
A public list of people's best scores at the Resquites High-Range Tests. The test author checks every score against its certificate on file before it is listed, and each listed score links to its certificate on the Verify page, so anyone can check it.
What does a listing cost?
A listing, with the author's review of your certificates: US$100, once. An update, to add a test or a higher score later: US$25. The Resquites Composite IQ, with its own certificate: US$100. There are no annual dues, and an application the author cannot accept is refunded in full.
Which certificates count?
Certificates in your name, issued by the test author: THETIS, RUFIT, PROTEUS, QUADRAVA-FR, NEREUS, THAUMAS, GALENE, EIDOTHEA, AMPHITRITE, DYNAMENE, PRONOE, PSAMATHE and PANOPEA. From your second attempt at a test, its certificate is issued by the author on request: ask for the one of your best result by replying to your result email, then apply with it. Certificates of the author's own test sessions and withdrawn certificates do not count.
Why does the Composite IQ count every attempt?
So that it cannot be raised by retaking a test until one attempt comes out high. Each test counts with the mean of all your attempts at it, first and later ones alike, while the Register lists your best certificate at each test.
Can I have my listing taken down?
Yes, at any time: write to the author, and it is removed from the public list. Your certificates stay valid on the Verify page.
