Oh boy pa, I dun took an IQ test!

[BlackCat]

a) Well, I think we agree.
b) I was wathching TV, drinking some red wine and having some trouble with the english math words (we used danish terms when I learned it)

I have been tested a nuber of times, both by the current company I was working for and by a couple of headhunter companies - always ended in the top 2 %. For the fun of it, I also once took a Mensa test - they was eager to get me as member when I hit 174.

Well, guess that these companies tests has suddently been proved invalid

Edit: Well, to be honest, it would probably be correct to mention that I was on the plus side of a bottle of red wine

174?



No, I doubt it.

[ShaneWalter]

174 is a lot higher than "in the top 2%".

I'm too lazy to look it up, but IIRC 174 IQ is somewhere around 1 in 100,000 to 1 in 1,000,000.

Also, I doubt a headhunter would spend the money to do a legitimate IQ test. Maybe a wonderlic test.

[Kuciwalker]

175 is 5 standard deviations, which basically makes you Einstein.

[Kuciwalker]

There should be ~1700 people in the world with an IQ of 175 or higher.

I got a 15 on the Wonderlic when I took it for the draft.

One time I took an online IQ test, and the testing website said that for twenty bucks it would email me a Personalized IQ Profile Analysis. I paid for the analysis, and they sent me an email saying "Thanks For the Money, ******" in ninety-six point font, with "******" in flashing red letters. Ever since then I haven't put too much stock in online IQ tests.

Well, I don't really belive much in these nubers, though, they are pretty consistent despite different tests, so while I'm probably not an Einstein as Kuci says, I'm still probably in the high end even if it may cause KH to have an hissy fit

[Kuciwalker]

If you had a very high IQ the meaning of a 174 IQ would be obvious to you.

Well if you had an high IQ, then you would know why I could score 174

[Kuciwalker]

I do and I do. You took a bull**** test and/or are lying

[BlackCat]

No, you don't.

This was back when they added 100 points to everyone's score to make them feel better.

Depending on the test's SD (some are 15, some 16) 174 would be either 1 in 534 000 or 1 in 2 474 000

And BC's not even close to that smart.

[DaShi]

Maybe we're all just too dumb to tell.
