True
B
False
C
In certain situations
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The major difference is that achievement can be measured more easily than intelligence. There is a clear understanding of what achievement is. Intelligence, on the other hand, is more difficult to define explicitly, which makes it a concept that is difficult to evaluate.

Detailed explanation-2: -An intelligence test is different from an achievement test. Achievement tests measure the knowledge on a particular subject.

Detailed explanation-3: -Achievement tests may be used to diagnose student strengths and weaknesses as well. While achievement tests are able to measure a student’s progress at the end of the year, critics such as the Rand Corp. argue that achievement tests do not measure higher order thinking skills, problem solving and teamwork.
