Getting back on topic: The only IQ test I've taken that I have results for is the new WAIS-IV from about a month ago. My scores were as follows:
Verbal Comprehension: 150
Perceptual Reasoning: 117
Working Memory: 122
Processing Speed: 105

Full Scale: 133

The interesting part about these scores, to me, is the wide gap from highest to lowest- three standard deviations between verbal and processing scores.

well they will become infected if you do not percieve them and lick them.

a wounded animal who is not aware of his wounds is usually rabid.

i am too tired now and you have the microphone in your possession.
good night.


I can't perceive what isn't there in reality, sorry buddy but I don't need a microphone in order to be heard, I don't really care if I am not heard, people are often deaf to the truth, especially when it affects them directly :)

ok whatever i am not interested further in the topic.
you can go and lick your wounds. (if you get any nutrition from them)

with people like you, it is like stepping through a forrest of insects that inevitably get crushed no matter how lightly you tread.
sorry whatever i am finished with this thread because i am beyond tired and that means your plight is not important to me.

nighty night.

And that is just being anal... See, attacksgo both ways...


Anal? I don't see what is anal about declaring that you have no wounds to lick or making the observation that someone has an over inflated opinion of themselves.


What was anal was he said he was done, and you are still sitting there yaking back at him, well maybe its not anal exactly, but it is definitly making you look worse. And now that I am finished with my stuff I need to do on my laptop before everything else, I am really done.

I was merely responding individually to those posts that b9 had made that were directed towards myself in particular :D

jk, but we dont have to intentionally incite the board here (cause that's all that saying everyone has a preoccupation with IQ does, and we know its not everyone, just a few people.) This isn't even a compromise opinion, I think boots would admit that it's not everyone who is "preoccupied with their IQ" and d9 would admit that there definitely are there that might lead to the impression that the board is in general. Then we could hug and get along!

you are a muddy kind of 152.

and that is all the evidence you have?
for a person who is 152 to reason that they are correct because they remember their IQ score to be 152 means they are not 152.
no one who is 152 would rest their argument solely on their iq score to debate a point. i am in a mood where i am tired and i hate imposters who crap about themselves.
there are many worms that like to live in apples.

oh bloody edit: i saw the letters "jk" when i reread your post so i think you were joking and i take all i said back.

god knows where ia m going to store it.

I don't think IQ test are made for me. I had scores from the 'mildly mentally ret*d range' to the 'gifted range' (meaning from ~70 to ~140) in just the past 2 years. Even full scores like 85 and 115 on the same day in the same hour recently. Professional couldn't really grasp that.

I think the problem with IQ tests is that they were designed by intelligent people.

I'll rephrase that one:

I think the problem with IQ tests is that they were designed by intelligent people who think/thought themselves to be more intelligent than they actually are, which is why IQ tests are unreliable for the most part.
