Forums → The Tavern → IQ test how smart are you!

Not really sure how people rate ones intellegence. Just because you know a bunch of stuff doesn't mean your smart at all. I've known a lot of book smart people who had hardly any common sense. I would not take any free test you take on the internet very seriously.

yah off course its not serious any mental, emotional disorders, or not being calm or orderly of mind holds your inteligence back.
This is just a fun thing i thought i would try and compare to otehr scores to my self. The quesitons are just general "how fast can you do this and get the right answer" things. Some more than that though.

Well I'm not afraid to tell my score since these tests aren't really accurate.
You know, a real IQ test would need hundreds of question to be efficient...As for me, I did 124 and English's not my first tongue which just prove how ridiculous it is (124 is genius grade, I could easily be a doctor with such an IQ)

I agree, why is there only 38 questions?

FINALLY some one actually responded to the OP.
isnt 100 average?

And i do agree IQ means hardly anything. Stephan Hawkings is smaaart and he said that he "Discounts the value of numerical IQ's"

and in a 2004 interview he said "People who boast about their IQ's are losers" i thought that was funny

Its charging me 9.95 for a certificate.

Its charging me 9.95 for a certificate.

According to this "test", I'm 104. Which is horse snuff. The questions aren't full-range and is hardly interactive at all. Of course, it's the internet, so whaddaya expect? When a team of professionals tested me over a period of 5 days with different fields of study, THAT is testing. My IQ was more accurate as such.

glad to see people are giving responses to the test now, and yes i do not see as acuurate as i have said.

And that Stephan Hawking interview i quoted above can be found HERE if any one cares. i like his answers

Well, I recieved 140. xD
I would estimate that I finished around 9 minutes.
And I feel like only got a couple wrong.

I don't think this is very accurate though.. >.< However much that I'd like to think I was smart.

Yeah this is highly inaccurate and has no real basis on your true IQ.

And actually 70 and below indicates learning disabilites
100 is average
140+ is considered 'genius'

Regarding the OP, my score on this test is 154. However I know my true IQ is in fact a bit lower than that as determined by traditional testing methods. And your IQ really only refers to your capacity to learn, speed of absorption of information as well as retention, and patter discerning abilities. With enough education and good tutor you can teach just about anyone just about anything. IQ is really irrelevant.

137.

Although it isn't in depth enough to be even close to accurate. Also, it's a scam site. Just so you know.

Why else would you have to pay for your certificate?

38 questions =odd #
