OFF TOPIC!! How smart are you?

[darko21]

I was on CNN's website this morning and saw an ad for this IQ test. It's kinda fun some of the questions are difficult and make you think twice. I'm not sure how accurate the test is because its not timed and it probably should be.
Just so you know at the end they request personal info postal code email etc (I think its some kinda dating company) Inorder to get your score you must give personal info but you can make up an email address and it will still redirect to your final score.
I got a score of 131 and there was only 1 or 2 question I was not 100% on. Like I said its not timed so I'm not sure its valid but if you take the test twice you are only fooling yourself.
Have fun...

Not very smart since I got suckered into that test, but I got a 133. I think you get points depending on your age. More points for being older.

O, and my parents claim to have been perfect in every respect and thus I am worthless and will never succeed.

Eh, they're prolly right. All my effort for nothing- got a feeling I'm gonna mess up on my SAT's, and lately I'm just depressed- I study, and then I work so that I may study more and then I do that so I can work more to make more money but then I don't have anything useful to spend it on. Seriously, life sucks.

I guess your right I just remember that Fox show about IQ testing (I think it was called Test America's IQ ) where they gave points for your age. Go figure...never trust Fox

What the hell was up with this question.

John likes 400 but not 300; he likes 100 but not 99; he likes 2500 but not 2400. Which does he like?

a. 900
b. 1000
c. 1100
d. 1200

Wanna talk about it, meet in the OTHER forum. Would be better than here.

Just one thing, if you want to talk, DON'T mention how good you are in something, you know how that starts things with people, including me. We know it, just tell us what's on your mind and your mind alone, not your brain!

I managed to pick a fight with my parents, almost broke their door. There were some....issues that needed to be discussed. Things are still unfolding. U remember that B- on the english? That's been making me nervous the entire week, and definetly is one of the reasons. Will see how I did on the essay I wrote a day ago. Add having to start a whole new quantum project, having an very stressful weeks full of tests that were real hard and not sleeping much, and finally 3 weeks till PSAT's and my dad says if I don't get Merit Scholarship he thinks I can accomplish nothing in life, and will not pay for college and will stop my mentor from helping me from time to time w/ my quantum project- ie kill my ambitions b/c he thinks I'm an idiot then...u get the picture.

[flamethrower205]

I dunno if it's age related, I said born 1987 and got a 138, course the test does seem a tad fishy....
The best r the timed ones hehe, cause then you get a real feel on how well ur brain functions working at max speed.

Now first of all, WHAT was the B- exam on about?

You gotta ask yourself what it means.

You also have to realize getting As in College (for you, soon) is not frequent. At least in my college it isn't always the case. Don't go expecting your essays to get 95% in Philosophy. Nor in French class. You gotta prepare yourself. I dunno your limits, but if you got B- on something major, maybe now you are starting to see your flaws, i.e. what is human! I know I got damn pissed at 84% in one written production. Then again it's French.
I also realize I have to tune down my expectations and not expect 90s in college.

Your dad may be just threatning you on purpose to pump you up.
Like I said, go to the OTHER forum. I could give you some opinion, friendly, but I'd rather not make it mixed in this forum.

u get the picture.

ROFL at the irony of this one! :tongue:

[darko21]

Schmide looks like you found the answer.

John likes 400 but not 300; he likes 100 but not 99; he likes 2500 but not 2400. Which does he like?

a. 900
b. 1000
c. 1100
d. 1200

I studied that one for a while best I could do was he does not like #s that divide by 3 but that left b and c as possible answers so I just picked b or c I forget which. In reading that link you posted I think the correct # is 1000 because he still don't like anything that divides by 3. and he likes squares. Does this make (B) 1000 the right answer.
What do you think?

 

[JimStapleton]

Your IQ score is 131

Your Intellectual Type is a Visionary Philosopher.

This means you are highly intelligent and have a powerful mix of skills and insight that can be applied in a variety of different ways. Like Plato, your exceptional math and verbal skills make you very adept at explaining things to others — and at anticipating and predicting patterns. And that's just some of what we know about you from your IQ results.










Comment: IQ tests are supposed to be timed, this says nothing about timing, so I suspect it isn't completely accurate. I already knew my IQ, and that is about right, so I suspect I completed it in the ammount of time they expected, give-or-take.

nVidia didn't make me an nVidia fanboy, ATi, and lack of other serious competition made me an nVidia fanboy.

 

[JimStapleton]

Less points for the same result as you get older.

It's comparing you to the average of your age group.

A two year old getting half right would be more impressive for the age group than a twenty year old, and hence have a higher score.

I think I figured this one out. I don't want to post my answer if other people want to figure it out for themselves.

Did anyone else have a lot of fun with this?

These tests are quite unreliable. I scored 138 on that test, and I scored 151 on that ACE Official I.Q. Test.

The most reliable one I've found is <A HREF="http://www.highiqsociety.org" target="_new">http://www.highiqsociety.org</A>. I got 132 at that one.

The difference with that one is that it's timed, so not only does it measure your knowledge, but your ability to apply it quickly - obviously you'll lose points if you need to write down the steps to get the answer.

Do that, then post back with your score. If you get 126, you're offered membership to that society. I have my membership framed on my wall. Just to show off ;-)

I considered taking the Mensa test, but I don't want to pay annual membership fees.
