Post estimates of average apolyton poster's IQ

[Al B. Sure!]

Actually I might be mis-remembering. I just looked up the minimum for "mentally gifted" for Philly schools and it's 130 so I had to be at least 130 since that IQ test put me in the MG classes.

Then again...

Each school district shall establish procedures to determine whether a student is mentally gifted. This term includes a person who has an IQ of 130 or higher or when multiple criteria as set forth in this chapter and in Department Guidelines indicate gifted ability. Determination of gifted ability will not be based on IQ score alone. Deficits in memory or processing speed, as indicated by testing, cannot be the sole basis upon which a student is determined to be ineligible for gifted special education. A person with an IQ score lower than 130 may be admitted to gifted programs when other educational criteria in the profile of the person strongly indicate gifted ability. Determination of mentally gifted must include an assessment by a certified school psychologist.

So my remembering of 128 may be accurate.

Because of one of Hera's threads, I came across an SAT to IQ conversion chart which indicated that my IQ should be 134 based on my SAT score but that's purely correlative.

Mentally gifted...yes. I agree, he is mentally gifted. Why else does he run around with a helmet and elbow/knee pads on at all times? YAAAAAAY!

Then the rest of this forum must be filled with geniuses. Or genii.

[Krill]

They haven't invented an IQ test yet that Ben can understand.

[Kitschum]

I'm a genuis.

See, I told you I was smarter than Slowwpoke...

[SlowwHand]

You may or may not have a higher I.Q., but you're definitely not smarter.

No way, I'm pretty sure KH is measurably more intelligent than I am.

I'm clearly smarter than you because I don't live in Texas!

[Felch]

I've taken intelligence tests before, but I've never been told the results. I guess they wanted to spare me the shame.

I should have known such things existed...

Looked at one - seems they haven't updated their charts in several years, as they all use the 1600 SAT range.

Never taken an IQ test - did very well on the SAT back in the day.

A legit SAT to IQ chart should cap out pretty low on the IQ side.
