Final answer:

The scoring of individually-administered IQ tests is not entirely objective and free from interpretation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement C) The scoring of individually-administered IQ tests is entirely objective and free from interpretation is FALSE. While IQ tests are standardized to provide consistent administration and scoring, interpretation of the results does require some subjectivity. Qualified professionals, such as trained psychologists or examiners, administer the tests and interpret the scores based on established norms and guidelines. Scoring and interpretation involve analyzing various tasks and questions to assess different cognitive abilities and provide a comprehensive assessment of an individual's intellectual abilities (Statement D).
