Post by: Bobboau on July 30, 2003, 10:34:58 am: mom made me take that a few months ago, I think I got 121 or something, I then proceded to point out that this was basicly a dateing service and of corse we were going to have above average test scores, becase if the test said you were an idiot you would probly not want to do bussness with them any more. also there are like 20 questions, or some other imposable-to-be-acurate-ly small number.

Title: Whats your IQ
Post by: mikhael on July 30, 2003, 02:49:32 pm: 138, though I think the low score is because its a fairly non-scientific IQ test.

Title: Whats your IQ
Post by: Sandwich on July 30, 2003, 07:03:21 pm: Very strange. I only got 135, and yet there was only one or two questions I wasn't completely sure about. Hmm...

Thunder, what did you put in as education history and age - I have a suspicion that they would adjust the results depending on whether one finished school or not, etc etc.

I didn't bother taking that particular test. They're a waste of time.

Considering you couldn't score above 150 odd when the IQ scale goes over 100 points above that I doubt it.

You do realize that people with an IQ of 140 are considered to be geniuses, and only 3% of people have an IQ of 130 or above? That means that 131 is pretty damn good.

Post by: an0n on July 31, 2003, 02:35:35 pm: Uh, that only holds true for 11-17 years old IIRC.
Title: Whats your IQ
Post by: Grey Wolf on July 31, 2003, 02:54:53 pm: Hmm.... I went and looked it up on dictionary.com and Encarta, and found 2 things:
1. Genius is defined as a person with an IQ of 140 or higher.
2. Early IQ tests using the Stanford-Binet IQ scale do not work correctly with adults due to the fact it worked off of the comparison of one's age to one's mental age, while more modern tests using the Stanford-Binet IQ scale determine your IQ by how you compare to the average.
Title: Whats your IQ
Post by: an0n on July 31, 2003, 03:05:50 pm: Meh. At 14 I got told I had an IQ of 138 and was in the 99th Percentile.

Or was it 136?

I know one of them was my IQ and one was my Yellis score. Y'know those yellow-book tests they give ya?

You're not supposed to ever see your results, but the psychologist showed me mine. Lowest I got was like 92% in English.
