1. Remember the answers.
2. Refresh the page.
3. Enter answers you already did and continue with it (you have whole time left).
...it is cheating but, who ever made test didn't have high enough IQ to cover that hole.

It says 117 +/- 6.
Oh well. It's about what I expected.

IQ Test


It gave me 117 as well (actually +/- 6). Though I tested in Kindergarten at 130, and have always scored in at least the top 2% on the Iowa tests at school.

Then again, I'm using one of those touchpads for a laptop instead of a mouse, so that probably took a fair bit of my time...

It really doesn't matter that much whether you have a mouse or not. The test doesn't indicate anything regardless.

That makes him eligible for Mensa, I think.

I would be hesitant to join, since then my ex would be proven right when she said I'm just too lazy to make an effort.

Then again, I'm curious to find out what these people /do/ in there.

To be honest, I did bomb the rushed math portion...

But yeah. I had a feeling as much.

154+ (Official certified test, it was the maximum score)

Whoohoo!

...

Do you know what that means? That I excell at making IQ tests (Or just the one I made back then)

In my opinion this entire IQ fad is overrated, especially noting that it isn't a particularly useful indicator per se.

I know people with lower IQs than mine that are better/more knowledgeable/skilled at music, visual arts, mathematics, sciences, writing, etc. than me (And I am sure that includes people in this thread too).

Oh, and don't even get me at the amount of factors these so called "Officially certified" tests don't (even) account for (Or the indicators and methods they utilise).

You might have excelled at some parts, but scored normally/less than average on others.

Just because your score isn't in the top percentile doesn't mean you are an inherently less worthy person, or inherently less capable.

I didn't answer a single question in numeric reasoning, and I damn well tried to. My brain isn't good with that sort of stuff. My mind just becomes a total fog. There is a reason for that, though. Stupid brain. Do math! :palm:

That makes the estimate for your IQ 111 +/- 6.


I totally aced these;

Vocabulary
Analogies
Spelling
Spatial rotation

The rest I did good at, but not great.

I could certainly work on speeding up my arithmetic.

IQ tests aren't that great, though. Like most people, I excel in some particular areas, and don't do too good in others. I can accept not that I'm not a genius by IQ standards, but one of my strongest skills is my creativity, and IQ tests don't test for that.

I'd also like to point out that I've taken quite a few IQ tests, and gotten scores ranging from around 107 to 130. That's quite a large margin for inaccuracy.
