What is your IQ?

Post Reply New Topic

I miss my old intelligence.

when i was 14 i took an IQ test and received a Quota of 182. as part of a scholarship application to get into the Australian Science and maths school.

6 months later i was in a High speed Collision while on a school trip. received brain damage, and now have a recorded IQ of only 139.
still could've been worse!

Fat lot of good it des me.

I checked "over 150" but this really depends on the test, etc. The human mind has analogies to computers. A computer has RAM, hard drive, interfaces, software, etc. Just because a computer has a top quality RAM does not mean that the hard drive holds much. Similarly, there are all types of software, and a computer may have some types but not others. Consequently, attempting to summarize a person's intelligence with one variable, like IQ, is not very valuable.
It is useful for any person to understand what parts of the person's intelligence correspond to high and low quality computer components. I am extremely good at some types of math, for example. That is part of why I was professionally tested with an IQ of 150 when I was 14 years old. Six years later when I took a GMAT, I had a perfect score on the math section. On the other hand, like most aspies, some components of my software are pretty poor. I am very poor at noticing other people's emotions (even though I have lots of sympathy for other people).
A more useful question than "what is your IQ?" would be "what are the specs on your computer?"

edited because I misread

I thought that he/she was saying something else.
I apologize for that really stupid misunderstanding.

I can't remember what mine was at, but I know it was between 100-130. Nothing extraordinary, but that's alright. If I was super smart, I'd have way more responsibilities than I'd ever want to deal with!

I've been tested every two years ever since year two. My last one tested at 167. I've not scored that high before, it's usually somewhere in the upper 150s. I have a copy of part of my last test results because it says in that one area that the result was 'not a typeo.' Which is really amusing, because I've only every seen it spelled as 'typo' which suggest that they made a a typo tying the word typo.

134 by standard deviation. It used to be 138 by mental age, so it could be an effect of the outschool.

Hmm, maybe increasing verbal intelligence and engaging in physical exercise are worth more than I thought..

106

It fluctuates.

Typical internet IQ thread...major hyperinflation of IQ's here...

I did an iq test when I was 13 and national Mensa offered testing in our school. It, however, provided only approximate calculation of IQ. My result was 'over 130' (100th percentile). Personally I think that it is not really valid, since the test was about completing patterns which is something I am really good at.

I also did various internet IQ tests usually scoring somewhere around 125, but must say that these were in english and since english is not my native language I did not understand some questions.

156.

I was administered an IQ test with a purported professional from Mensa in school. It was optional and I thought it would be neat.

My score (I was given a plus or minus 15 range) was remarkably high and the tester made a slightly big deal out of it. I'm actually too embarrassed to tell anybody because I don't think they would believe me.

That being said, I score double-digits (below average) on EQ (emotional quotient) tests.

142 I believe.
