Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Retaking the WAIS test and achieving similar results would demonstrate the consistency and reliability of the test. However, pointing out his GPA score may not be convincing as it is not a direct measure of intelligence, and achievements in life may be influenced by factors other than intelligence. Taking a different type of IQ test may not necessarily prove the reliability of the WAIS test.
