For offensive IQ going from an A- to an A+. Would the results be the same as say going from a C- to a C+? Also, once you get to A+ can you actually improve on your A+?

For instance, say hypothetically going from a C- to a C+ would be a 4 point advantage. Would it still be a 4 point advantage going from an A- to an A+?

I've never seen any evidence to suggest it wasn't linear.

I believe it's linear as well, but the diminishing returns people would (I think) tell you that the difference between A- and A+ isn't worth as much as it costs.

I've come to think that IQ in the sets played are generally undervalued by most all coaches.  I generally plan my teams so that senior are getting to A+ at some point.

Was it lost myth that had an analysis showing hours/units spent to grow the IQ's?  Or was that just FT's?  I don't see it in my bookmarks (add to the list of annoyances, why can I only "favorite" 6 threads here?!)

i dont think he did either... i think iguana had at least one of those, maybe the other was porkpower (ft?). the thread lostmyth did was the veteran FAQ when he was leaving.

My players rarely get to a+

the iq scale is linear, so yes, i think it would still be a 4 point advantage.

yeah, maybe iguana.

ETA:  YES, iguana1.  This is from the mega FAQ thread.  That's really the only one you need to bookmark

Ugh, why do you need more than 6 favorite threads?  Well, what do I search for?  Growth doesn't work.  Can't search for threads about 'iq', search has to be at least 5 freaking characters.
