I'm currently experiencing a buttload of tests for my education (Psychology), as I'm learning the ropes regarding IQ and its measurement. My question for you is:

What's your estimated IQ?


Try to answer truthfully please.

[image loading]

Poll: Your estimated IQ?
(Vote): Above 130
(Vote): 120 - 129
(Vote): 110 - 119
(Vote): 100 - 109
(Vote): 90 - 99
(Vote): 80 - 89
(Vote): 70 - 79
(Vote): Below 70

The only tests I've ever taken were online tests, and more or less I was always around 120. I never took a "professional" one tough, so I don't know if that's any accurate at all.

I made IQ test at inet like year ago, when there was a study here that what city is the smartest here. The rankings were different then here, but my result was above avarege, so i'll pick 110-119 here. Seems like we have few Einsteins here ...
These kinda polls suck, cause eventho its anoumous, ppl still lie on polls lol... sad.

210 + Show Spoiler +

Some third world countries are reported to have people with lower intelligence. Around 70 or less. Not because they have stupider people, because many of the people don't know how to read and write and do not engage in mentally stimulating activities because of long work and family.

Without using a number to define you, as sites like hotornot and ratemypic have shown people love, intelligence is actually the neural concentration in your brain. What do you think is genius? Awesome memory, good at puzzles, ability to read and go through tons of knowledge?

Most of what people perceive as genius is simply discipline, and obsession to ideals. Speed math? Yeah you can get speed math, and speed reading too. Find tricks to memorize and read about intelligence from a newscientist article.

Genius to me is the people who know what's really common and don't rely on others for validation and appreciation. People who act are rare, and people looking for some number, or norm to define them best are common. Neural concentration is correlated to stimulus. Use your brain more and have it become more active. It's that simple. Stimulate all 5 senses when you can and pay attention. Enrich yourself by learning mathematics and music theory, and local laws and rights so when things happen, you'll have a deeper understanding.

When a chessmaster plays a game, and a beginner plays a game of chess, it's the beginner that actually is shown thinking harder, because everything is foreign. It's not how much you practice but also what you practice. If it doesnt feel uncomfortable and complicated, it's likely using much less brain activity. Make things complicated, and look further.

The more familiarity you have with mathematics problems and the english language, the more you will increase your IQ, which invalidates the test to begin with. It's matter of effort and how much you can put into bettering yourself. Does your job really give you more skills everyday, or are you just in a cycle of busywork? Money is worth very little compared to time and intentions.

Schools don't teach mastery, they teach short term memorization so the students are prepared to do busy work jobs. They're a creation for mass population efficiency management, so kids can have a place to go for a good while while parents are at work.

If you ever get in an argument or start talking about intelligence, don't be all arrogant and prove your stupidity by throw out a number. Deh indernet says I smart at 155IQ!! der der den they try to sell me my score. Point to something you can do, your education, or some accomplishment. If I took a poll where people said honestly what their IQ is, the average would be 140. So if you're going to brag, say it's 210 or something, which would be equivalent of genius once the IQ has been adjusted up to fit the average bragger scale.

If at first you score low, try a different test. If you succeed tell your friends... and thus is the evolution of only the stupidest tests, getting popular.

According to some mensa test on their site and some other tests I found, one in swedens largest popular science magazine im around 125-135. Although the peak IQ most of those tests are able to show is like 130 or something so even if someone had 180 it would say 130 since there are no questions above that level I dont think im above 135 though. I wouldnt be supriced if the average IQ on TL is around 120 atleast. If its 100 in the whole population then maybe its 105-110 to people who use the internet a lot. And a community centered around a strategy game? plz... Half of the people here study some maths heavy subject at UNI XD

I did a doubtful online test 3 years ago and got 126. I think 115-120 would be more accurate.
100 is average (i.e. most people have 100).
"Above 130" with the most votes, come on... Above 130 is extremely rare.

I estimate that I'm above 130.

Where do I go to take one (that's reputable)?

Remember that 100 is the average of the whole population and not the average in every group How many of the friend you know who play starcraft would you place below the 100 line? I cant think of a single one ._.

It has a strong technique, but it lacks oo.
