last time I did one of those I got 145 or something.

EDIT: and IQ isnt how smart you are. Its the ratio of your tested mental age compared to chronological age.

I never got to finish the BCC one. I don't really wanna take it right now.

The ones I've taken have been 135-145.

176 would make you some kind of mathimatical genius. And a good 10 points over the average nobel award prize winner.

No, 100 is average (that's what I've heard anyway). 97 means you're just about normal. Not particulary dumb, not particulary smart. I get about 110-120 myself. Some of these tests focus a bit too much on how much you know too. And even if your IQ isn't too high when it comes to logical problems, it might still be much higher when it comes to social issues.

I took one in kindergarten and I got 139. It was the most recent "legit" one I've taken.

100 is average, this would suggest that, according to the test, your mental age is at the same level as your chronological age. I've gotten 70s and 80s on them and I've also gotten 130s and 140s. Personally, I think IQ tests are inconsistent and thus, flawed. A better statement of intelligence, especially on an internet forum, is being able to make good, logical posts and threads.

Internet IQ tests are never valid. Ive ranged from 117 to 164 on online IQ tests. Ive never taken an official IQ test where they actually put you in a room and time you and stuff. The fact that I could score slightly higher than Albert Einstein on an IQ test shows that it isnt valid, in my opinion. I don't feel like taking this test right now, but I will take it later, and post my score. Even if the test isnt all taht valid, it still feels good to get a high score.

you can't do this test unless you've lived in britain all your life

also the timed thing was totally uncalled for

I remember when I took the BBC one for the first time, it showed me pictures of British people and acted as if I was supposed to know who the hell they were. I laughed.

How lame, I only got 109. I was too slow for the first four questions and just got timed-out. And I really had to take wild guesses at a couple of the faces questions because I don't know many famous Brit's. I should have been closer to 130 or 140. :cry:

I'm not taking it. Why? Because these damn tests are inaccurate. Everytime I take one my score is very different. One time it says 120 while another it says 182 or something.

I excepted a lot of you guys to be much higher than me since I'm 12 but I actually got a 115 last time I tried this summer of 2004. Wow I feel really good now. Wow lon611 I thought you'd be much smarter than me!

Obviously, you can't be smart unless you recognize Brittish Celebrities. I mean, how can anyone expect you to solve the mystery of fission if you don't know what Winston Churchill looks like!

I took a test a couple of years back and the result was 113 or something like that? I'm not that clever when it comes to logic and math.

Test the Nation? Ah, that was a TV show thing where they asked you 60 or so questions all night. Last time I did it I only got 5 or so wrong. Only one person in their large studio audience beat me, and that was by one. I rock. :cool:

It seems to me that the only reason to show off your IQ number is to show it off. Hmm.

I gave up on IQ tests a long time ago. Same reason as most people have said in this thread - 'tis flawed.

I've had 138 the past 3 times I've done IQ tests, I reckon they're all fixed or something :D

so modest, lol *wink*. im just playing Sephiroth, im ok. maybe my intelligence is finally curving towards normal. does that make sense?lol.

IQ: 136
This may not be accurate

I took an IQ test for school.
They told me I had an above average IQ

rubah

interesting-- they said mine was 114.

It might've been because I didn't manage to answer all of the questions. Interesting.

(I feel bad for my school-- I'm the only one in our class that keeps a straight 4.0)

Now I'm wondering how many people were guessing on those questions:D

Unless we have a whole forum of super geniuses I think most of you are boasting a tad, most people have 100 and for a place to have 15 people at random to have 140 is a tad odd.

Well you have to consider the crowd this forum attracts, that the tests may be inacurate and the fact that most people are idiots and bring the average down.

I posted a link about this with a long this of IQ tests a few months ago. I took three and averaged about 147. The one I took in college pyschology said 121. It sounds a little more accurate.
