People that say they are smart and dumb might (again?) read the second post in this thread. IQ-test scores should be taken with a huge pinch of salt. They usually measure something, but it's not sure what that something is.

What a dumbass test... well maybe I'm dumb too however, here's the confirmation, 91 appears to be my iq...
Seems odd, because other IQ tests I have made (also English ones) rate me at about 130-135
and with a Dutch test I go from 120-141 (it was some insane test with 10 different rounds of one hour each luckily I could stop and go on whenever I wanted, anyway the results on the 10 tests varied a bit)
The questions were pretty dumb most of the time, and the time limit on each question is ridiculous,... for example filling in a certain amount of questions in 20 minutes would be a better choice...
This test is very advantageous for people with good visual capabilities!

Ah, the online IQ test, everyone's fave gender-inclusive penis-length contest. Since we could all be BSing these scores, does it really matter?

My IQ according to this test would be 135.
Language 12/12 (I'm not even native English
)
Memory 10/12
Logic 18/22
Numbers 12/12
Perception 11/12
I didn't understand a few words, questions and answers though due to my non-native-English-being, so if it was in Dutch, my result probably would've been higher. Which leads me to believe this test is way too simple.
There have been two IQ tests on the Belgian television as well (BBC stole the idea from us) and there I scored 127 the first time, and 122 the second time, while the averages from those tests were 98-99 and 94-96 IIRC.
Is this the only test BBC is doing, or are there other? Here there were also other tests about EQ, Sex Q, Happiness Q (I scored 145/150 on that one), etcetera...

I got 141 on that test, or 69 out of 70 right. It seems like a good general test, but being a general test, doesn't go that high (only up to 142 for my age group IIRC).

And still 145 as a score? Not bad, or was 145 what you put in as your age?

Nah, well done Sloww. It's the IQ thats the bit to compare, not the # of questions right. Even a Texan can be smart

For though he was master of the world, he was not quite sure what to do next
But he would think of something

Points go up with age? What kind of craziness is that? The whole point of an IQ test is mental age divided by chronological age! What kind of fraction increases with a higher denominator?"Although I may disagree with what you say, I will defend to the death your right to hear me tell you how wrong you are."Comment
