Nah I've gotten quite a range myself.  Plus IQ tests are bullshit anyways.  They were started as an attempt to separate the fodder from the officers during one of the drafts and work decent for that purpose.  But they've found that there are many different types of intelligence and an accurate IQ test would have to test each one and would take a long time.

So if you want to know how smart you are it's best to surround yourself with ass-kissers otherwise just assume you are capable enough to do what you've been doing until now and could probably do better if you worked at it.

Actually that should be my IQ test.  People could ask me how smart they are and I'd tell them enough now here's my fee.

QFT x2


But I'm still rather proud of my score. ~120-130 IIRC.
I got a 136 for an 18 year old on an online one when I was 8 :Smile
I got about 125 the last time I took an IQ test.  My friend who was randomly hitting answers got 110.
above examples are why iq tests don't work
I don't think I've ever taken a standardized IQ test.

If I recall they are also pretty biased; they basically test the IQ of white upper-middle or higher class people, or at least they did. It is also suggested that they might be the beginning of many stereotypes about various people, dunno about that, forgot most of what I've learned.

I just remember that they seem to have a lot of questions that are geared towards a specific group of people who would have learned specific things in a specific environment. There are TONNES of intelligent people who fail because they fall outside of those very specific borders.

Is this true?
I  should clarify: of all the people I know in neuroscience, 1 is an alcoholic and is drunk literally 5-6 days out of the week, one plays video games at least 4 hours a day, and 1 is an alcoholic who plays too many video games  (guess which one is Ianki Big Grin)
I have been barred from taking standardized tests on computers ever since the incident....
Any and all IQ tests you can take online are false scored to make you feel good/bad and pay to see more results/etc. You want to find out how high your IQ is, take a fucking Mensa test, cause that's the only way you're getting anything close to accurate results.
