Abstract
Among the special classes in operation in the schools of Jack son are what are known as classes, wherein pupils ac complish two semesters' work in one semester. Candidates for these classes are selected in part by means of group intelligence tests. In the spring of 1921 it was felt desirable to supplement the National Intelligence Test, Scale A, with some other group test in order to make a more accurate selection of pupils for the speed classes of the following autumn. The Whipple Group Tests for Grammar Grades were originally designed for the specific purpose of selecting gifted pupils?a purpose which was also ours. The Group Tests for Grammar Grades, however, had primary reference to grades above the fifth. Their applicability in the fourth and fifth grades was experimentally investigated with results which will be reported in this paper.
