Take the test on IQtest.com, it took me less than 10 minutes. It tries to sell you a fancy one but it gives you the actual number for free, like in the picture.What do you score on this highly suspect IQ test?

I've always assumed these were loaded to make facebook moms feel smart (hands out 120's like candy)
On that note, I think I pulled 120 back in college after an anime and bourbon bender when I couldn't sleep.

I rounded mine up to 140 since it’s closer to 140 than 130. They didn’t take the online test, but when I was in middle school they gave me an IQ test.

Tbh I’m not sure that I believe that intelligence is quantifiable and that if it is that it’s one-dimensional. Or that measuring intelligence is inherently useful for anything.

I guess there’s problem solving and then there’s knowledge. For example, someone could be really smart and have a really high IQ, but between somebody with a high IQ who never went to college and somebody with an average IQ who had a degree in aerospace engineering, if I needed somebody to build an airplane I’d probably hire the dumber person who knows what they’re doing over the smarter person with no experience.

Probably at least 400 or 500 if I had to guess.

I was curious so I went to the website and the first thing I saw was a picture of Albert Einstein so I cringed a little bit.
I’m surprised the reviews are this bad. I would think they’d have at least make some fake reviews to make it look better or a few stupid people here or there would give it a good rating because it said they were a genius.

When I started it, I noticed all the questions are word-based, which is known to be problematic because it’s culturally specific whether someone is fluent in English or not. For example, if somebody was Chinese and they don’t speak English, they’d do poorly on this kind of test, except, so would an English speaker on a Chinese-based test, so it’s not really a non-biased measure of intelligence.

138. I feel like a Mumsnet user after completing that.

I gave up on IQ tests because they always gave me different answers. Then I got depression, and apparently your IQ drops when you are depressed. I feel that depressed people shouldn't be time constrained.
So I didn't do the test.

Although I can say with a high degree of confidence that that’s not a real IQ test in the first place.

I was administered a proper IQ test but it was when I was quite young, like 8 years old. I'm curious what it would be now.
