If you got the time and don't mind taking an IQ test, here it is. I scored a 120 "Word Warrior"

<A HREF="http://www.emode.com/" target="_new">"The Ultimate IQ Test"</A>

Of course they want your money, but the test is FREE. You decide if you want to know more for $14.95 Don't be put off if your score isn't what you expect, you may even be surprised as I was to discover my IQ on a good day. :smile:

How can we know if these are high or not? What is the average high IQ or so? I am wondering if my score isn't low here...

on that web site they say:

Quote :

Most people's IQs are between 70 and 130. In fact, 95% of all people have IQs within that range. 68% of people score between 80 and 120.


I thought it was interesting. This was the first time I ever took an IQ test.

Cool dude! You know their will be some to try and out do you, but the test isn't made as a competitive tool. So, I'm waiting to see someone make a 190.

Damn, I only got 138, maybe I shouldn't have taken that phone call in the middle of the test...oh well, maybe it's my age catching up.

They called me a "Visual Mathematician".

What's the frequency, Kenneth?

Reply to Crashman

The top score is 160 I believe.

Oops! the highest score is 160, not 190. Man! you did great!

LOL, i got a 137, that thing is the biggest load of bull i ever seen. i know damn well i got the first question right (the color swapping box in a box and circle in a box). it said i got the wrong answer. and the math, said i was in the 20 percentile, roflmao!!! it showed one math question i got wrong, the one that asked which is the next number in this sequence:
64 16 4 1 1/4, obviously 1/16. i chose that and it said i had the wrong answer, i guess 1/16 isn't a quarter of 1/4, hmmm. something is messed up with that thing.

Hehehe...why you complaining you got the second highest score so far. I don't know how they measure the answers but they say the test was developed by some doctors. The colors stuff seemed bogus or maybe I'm too lame to figure what's the mechanics of choice in color sequencing. I really didn't think that there was a right/wrong answer for some of the questions, but go figure I only scored 120.

My actual IQ is 154 so of course it's not perfect, but it's still fun.

I gave a fake email so I didn't get any of the breakdowns. Yes, 1/16 was right. 2^-4

The average person has a score of 100. I think a vegetable has an IQ below 70 clinically. 120 is really good. Especially considering how inaccurate this thing is.

The logic questions are straight out of a logic book, but I can't remember all the T F rules so that's what I missed. I don't see that stuff, I have to learn it. An IQ test isn't supposed to be based on knowledge, but pure intelligence and this one was a bit flawed.

Are you using Netscape. I didn't have that problem with IE. I'll try it in Netscape to see if I get the same. Yeah I think it has something to do with the type browser. I was able to get in with Netscape, but I didn't feel like taking the test again today. It acted a little funky though in Netscape.

I'm currently using Konqueror. I might go back and try again with Galeon, but probably not. I reloaded and got the exact same set of questions second time around, which isn't all that impressive.

Reply to Kelledin

Ok, I was a bit out of line. First of all, it depends on which IQ test you take. Here's an example:

"Mild Mental Retardation: IQ level 50-55 to approx. 70"
"Moderate Mental Retardation: IQ level 35-40 to 40-55"
"Severe Mental Retardation: IQ level 20-25 to 35-40"
"Profound Mental Retardation: IQ level below 20 or 25"

Some IQ tests go all the way up to 84 for mental retardation.

Online iq tests are false, a real iq test is timed and involves spatial reasoning tests, dont even bother taking online iq tests.

I agree with you on this, but it presented a challenge for fun. Did you take it? I know your IQ is high already, but it was just for enjoyment.

My score is 131 and I'm a Visual Mathematician according to the test. But keep in mind that English is not my natural language, because I think that makes the test 'harder'.

But every IQ test will give different answers, IQ is relative.

I've done IQ tests before and my scores have always been in the 120-130 range.

It's a crappy test. Too much on words of wisdom and not enough on spacial stuff.

ROFLOL, I'm glad everyone is having fun with the test. This IQ test doesn't meassure you true IQ, because like Matisaro said; if it were real, it would be timed. Some of your really crack me up with your responses. I must admitt that the test is a fun challenge that cost nothing but your time.

Cheers!

the truth is 68% of the population scores beteween 90 and 110 this is considered average. The categories are represented by a normal distribution with a standard deviation of ~15. I can't really give an opinion on the validity of that test but a "real" standardized I.Q test also includes short term memory tasks, whole part\relationships, tests of general information about the world, visual motor integration tests and tests that measure planning and organizational abilities as well as indexes for speed of proccessing and freedom from distractability oh yeah and sequencing skills and ability to correctly interpret social situatiuons.. anyway you get the idea.
In general the standardized tests are pretty accurate gauges of cognitive capacity (ability to learn as opposed to what you have actually learned, that would be an achievement test) and are considered to represent the true I.Q +\- 5 points reliably

lagger
**edit** matisaro is correct I use a digital stopwatch for I.Q. testing and achievement testing also ..it is an essential part of some of the tests

On question 27 I chose grape, because it was the only one of it's kind that grew on a vine instead of a tree. Just a logically guess. Right who knows? The first question about the colors was too abstract for me. I guessed there also. LOL.

<font color=purple><b>An average human brain weights aprox. 3lbs., but a thought weights a load.</font color=purple></b>

Reply to jc14all

Me too on the grape one. Nearly went for the coconut because of the shell, then thoguht again. LoL!

The colour one was a complete guess.

I didn't like the rose thorn one. Never heard that expression before.
