Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Correct Answer :
(A)- (II), (B)- (III), (C)- (I), (D)- (IV)
Solution :
The correct option is (A)- (II), (B)- (III), (C)- (I), (D)- (IV).
To understand why this is the correct matching, let us analyze the terms in List-I and match them with their corresponding descriptions or definitions in List-II based on psychological and educational concepts:
1. (A) Intellectual deficiency matches with (II) Below IQ score of 70

3. (C) Remarkable ability in a specific field matches with (I) Prodigy
A "prodigy" is defined as a person, especially a child, who demonstrates an exceptional and remarkable talent or ability in a specific field (such as mathematics, music, chess, or art) at a very early age.
4. (D) Highly talented matches with (IV) Talent
"Talent" represents a high level of performance, capability, or potential in a specific, narrower area (such as athletic, creative, or musical skills). An individual who is highly talented in a specific domain is said to possess specific talent.
By combining these correct matches, we get:
• (A) matches with (II)
• (B) matches with (III)
• (C) matches with (I)
• (D) matches with (IV)
This perfectly corresponds to the first option.
