Have you measured your IQ yet?

If so, are you smart? Or just normal? Or a wunderkind?

I naturally assume that I'm a genius, but can you direct me to somewhere I can prove it? I may be unfeasibly gifted, but I'm also lazy...

I also assume that I am a genius...however, point me in the direction opposite of any way to prove it, as I'm afraid my geniusity will not come acrost on any messuremint.

I had mine tested in 5th grade....about 20 years ago. Is that valid? I don't know what the numbers mean. I thought mine was average, but then I heard it was high. I hate standardized tests.

Congratulations, Simon!
Your IQ score is 136

This number is based on a scientific formula that compares how many questions you answered correctly on the Classic IQ Test relative to others.

Your Intellectual Type is Visionary Philosopher. This means you are highly intelligent and have a powerful mix of skills and insight that can be applied in a variety of different ways. Like Plato, your exceptional math and verbal skills make you very adept at explaining things to others — and at anticipating and predicting patterns.

I like being a visionary philosopher.

This is the first time I've ever mentioned it, because my family and teachers kept telling me 149 was average for fifth grade. My best friend, Wendy got "151". I was totally jealous. They told us we were average, but let us take BASIC, electronics, and creative writing classes with high school kids when we were 10.
I was always told I was just average and nothing special, so I majored in art, but found my way to IT.

So you guys have to do IQ tests at age 10 or whatever? That seems a little harsh. We have streaming by ability here to a certain extent, but nothing like ranking kids according to an arbitrary test.
Actually, saying that, there's now SATS tests here at age 7. How can you give a 7 yr old kid an exam? It seems ridiculous.

Basically, I'm angling for someone to tell me that 136 is clever.

The fact that I was the first to respond appears to be directly related to mine being the lowest.

From what I've read, that would be clever. Speaking in terms of Americans, I guess, I understand that 3% are at 130 or above and that the top 1% are 140 or above. Also, that two thirds are between 84 and 116, with one sixth above and one sixth below that range accordingly. Weird to think that if you randomly encountered people, one in six would have an IQ of about 85 or lower.

I've often encountered the opinion that IQ tests do a decent job of identifying the extremes of intelligence and its lack but are not that reliable for those in the middle.

That was what I was looking for Erebus, thank you - you're a gent.
Top 3% eh? I like the idea of that.

Although, the British are probably cleverer in general, so that may not be that accurate...

Congratulations, jon!
Your IQ score is 136

This number is based on a scientific formula that compares how many questions you answered correctly on the Classic IQ Test relative to others.

Your Intellectual Type is Visionary Philosopher.

--I must be getting dumber. My whole family took IQ tests when I was in grade 10 or so and I scored 148, my step-father got 144 and he was so mad because i took about 5 minutes longer than him to finish.

Congratulations, jon!
Your IQ score is 73

This number is based on a scientific formula that compares how many questions you answered correctly on the Classic IQ Test relative to others.

Your Intellectual Type is Inventive Inquisitor. You have the unusual distinction of being equally good at math and verbal skills. This means you are a creative thinker and are uniquely good at teaching others through experiences. You are also a great improviser and very good at handling change.

--this is what you get if answer every question wrong on purpose.

Congratulations, jon!
Your IQ score is 91

This number is based on a scientific formula that compares how many questions you answered correctly on the Classic IQ Test relative to others.

Your Intellectual Type is Precision Processor. This means you're exceptionally good at discovering quick solutions to problems, especially ones that involve math or logic. You're also resourceful and able to think on your feet. And that's just some of what we know about you from your test results.

--and this is what you get when you try to answer all the questions as fast as possible without reading the questions.

Congratulations, jon!
Your IQ score is 138

This number is based on a scientific formula that compares how many questions you answered correctly on the Classic IQ Test relative to others.

Your Intellectual Type is Facts Curator. This means you are highly intelligent and have picked up an impressive and unique collection of facts and figures over the years. You've got a remarkable vocabulary and exceptional math skills — which puts you in the same class as brainiacs like Bill Gates. And that's just some of what we know about you from your test results.

--and here's what happens when you retake the test and try really hard. i still don't get the frickin' fruit question though.

Congratulations, Floop!
Your IQ score is 124

This number is based on a scientific formula that compares how many questions you answered correctly on the Classic IQ Test relative to others.

Your Intellectual Type is Word Warrior. This means you have exceptional verbal skills. You can easily make sense of complex issues and take an unusually creative approach to solving problems. Your strengths also make you a visionary. Even without trying you're able to come up with lots of new and creative ideas. And that's just a small part of what we know about you from your test results.


at least i'm Word Warrior though.

Word!

i got a higher score the last time i took this, but i did it rather quickly this time. it's not accurate at all though. for those of you who don't know, iq (intelligence quotient) was originally supposed to be your "mental age" divided by your "physical age" X 100. the average score is meant to be 100.

Blood'n'guts, this forum is full of geniuses.

Btw, is it true that FB fans have a higher IQ than Pixies fans? This could explain why I got a 650.

[edit] Uh, no, 650 is the number of my posts. Sorry...

I took it a couple of times via Tickle and came out with 138 each time. Maybe I'll do it again.

Congratulations, Tom!
Your IQ score is 136

Your Intellectual Type is Insightful Linguist. This means you are highly intelligent and have the natural fluency of a writer and the visual and spatial strengths of an artist. Those skills contribute to your creative and expressive mind.

Intelligence isn't IQ anyway, IQ is just the potential. Apparently Einstein's IQ wasn't particularly shocking, it's just that he stuck to a problem for a long time.
