Average People should have an average IQ, but as near as I can tell - there is no average people here.

If you want to know my IQ - I need 9 people to take the test and I will post my results as number 10.

and no cheating - you can only take the test once. and it will terminate fast - so dont spend too much time on one question. or you will run out of time.

try this one.. less info.[


u gotta be kiddin me... askin for information at the end..


but I got 140

Ever since after the Stanford-Binet measure it hasn't really been an "Intelligence Quotient" as is widely believed.

The reasons are myriad, and far too deep to cover in the context of this post; however, know that there are a great deal of tests that operate on what's known as a standard score. I'll assume you have a basic understanding of Probability & Statistics to avoid having to explain too much.

A standard score is a score that is normally distributed with an x-bar (mean) of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. Three deviations above the mean is 145 and three deviations below the mean is 55.

Scores higher than 145 are subject to 'ceiling effect' and are thus not calculated beyond this point because the percentage of the population that falls in this category is less than 0.15 percent.

Scores lower than 55 would be notoriously difficult to ascertain due to an unfortunate lack of higher order cognitive and physical abilities possessed by those individuals who have such "IQs." Furthermore, those are also represented as less than 0.15 percent of the population.

In the bell curve below, a normal distribution, a standard score is represented with 100 at 0 Standard Distributions, which coincides with the line in the center of the bell curve.



You can plainly see there is no reason to develop resources to "test" individuals beyond these points due to the fact that they are so rare and quite frankly who would be qualified to judge them? Wouldn't that be a little silly? Most of the guys developing these tests and measures are between 1 and 2 standard deviations above the mean. They have "IQs" of 115-130 and some of your kids are smarter than they are.

That said, an "IQ" score will be required along with a recommendation from a qualified health professional to determine eligibility in Gifted Programs as well as determining who should be given access to state health services for those who are experiencing Mental Retardation.

If a child is tested to have an "IQ" score of at least 130, the child will be qualified for gifted programs. Unfortunately, there is a cut off at 130, so if your child tests as 129, there is nothing that can be done, even though there is error in all statistics, due to the lack of an ability to measure an individual's True Score. Speak to a qualified health professional if you know someone who is in this situation.

If a child is tested to have an "IQ" score of 70 or below, the child will be qualified to obtain benefits provided by the government for those experiencing MR. Unfortunately this is a cut off situation as well, and those who have an IQ of 71-80 and who may legitimately need to have these services will be excluded based on the raw score. Speak to a qualified health professional if you know someone who is in this situation.

"IQ" tests must be administered properly for the results to be valid.

I cannot state this with enough emphasis. "IQ" scores must be obtained via proper administered tests by qualified test administrators for their results to be valid.

That said, the internet "IQ" tests are interesting, but there is very little internal consistency or validity to any of the measures presented, and are often created by people who wouldn't even know what a square root does on their solar powered calculator. (No offense.)

129...i forgot to answer one...got four of the 29 i answered wrong...nothing has changed in my way of perceiving and test taking since i've started multiple choice in elementary....think there's a part of that really doesn't give a [snip]

Um the highest score you can get on the ASVAB is 99

Just sayin

"i done skored a 63"
lol dumbass i got 75, respect my authoritaiii

i got 21 out of the 22 questions right i answered. if i had 5 more minutes i would have been a genius. so i guess i'm not a genius.

the difference between me and einstein is 5 minutes.

so it would take me one hour to understand how stupid the time limit on this test is and it would take einstein 55 mins.

A buck 26 here. Which is pretty sad considering I'm an American who has taken IQ tests in both English and German and I tend to score in the mid 130s in German. That may have to do with the fact that I've lived in Germany for the past 20 years. I don't know. Of course, 3 half-liters of beer didn't help either.

Still, appreciate the fun OP!

I took one a while back. Mine was 128.


Oh by the way, I'm a complete mongoloid at math. Totally retarded at math.

Anyone who thinks online IQ tests are at all accurate...has a low IQ

They're all going to tell you you're a near-genius and the great majority of us just aren't...

i answered twenty out of thirty questions got eighteen right. was given score of 112. wasn't quick enough . gettin old lol

i wouder if the IQ test is really for self recognition
do people who score higher contribute more to the total human understanding?
are major shifts in understanding, made by those with greater understanding?
how many different types of intelligence is there?
if im judged on my social IQ i guess I am the lowest IQ here
what type of intelligence are you testing for?
some IQ tests will be general knowledge
does that mean if i watch game shows all day i am a genius?
if the smartest man i the world locked themselves in a box and did not comunicate
would they really be the smartest?
sure we could all take the test of outcomes
how does that IQ really serve you or anyone else?

i am socially inept and can not comunicate in person very well
does that mean i have a low IQ?

context and use of intelligence is importent
if the smartest man in the world could not advance mans understanding
how smart are they really?

social IQ 45
xploder
