Dear lybrate-user, Please talk to the psychologist who did the IQ test. She/he will know what tests are done, what was the behaviour during the test, was there scatter among the subtests, etc. If OCD has interfered with timed tests of IQ, his IQ will improve. Otherwise, IQ is fixed for life of the person.
