IQ

Post Reply New Topic

What are some good free online IQ tests? I've been asked for the umpteenth time if I know my score so finally I will try it or die of curiousity

There are none. Seriously... never take an online IQ test for anything but amusement.

It is only for amusement. I took one for fun and it said I had an IQ of 127 but in reality it's not that high. When I had it tested for real 10 years ago or so, it was at 119 but I am sure its lower. Brain cells are disappearing I am sure

one time i took an online test and it was like 140... another time i took it it was like 120

Ahahah!

There's a simple Math equation that you can do yourself to figure out your IQ.

IQ = x - (y X 10)

x = the average of all the Online IQ tests you've taken online
y = The number of online IQ tests you've taken


For example, if ive taken 3 online tests, and got 130, 110, and 126, the average is 122.

IQ = 122 - (3 X 10)
IQ = 122 - 30
IQ = 92



So where do i pick up my Nobel Prize?

There ya go!! ! I only took the one.

IQ=127 - (1 X 10)
IQ= 127 - 10
IQ= 117 (darn, down 2 points.. told you my brain cells are dying)

Nevermind. that.

If you want a more accurate measure, study the types of intelligence and then just ask yourself seriously how well you score. By now, you probably can self score better than an online test.

Now thats an interesting large order problem by the way.
The real hard part is the what might be called a turing process problem;
how do you make a process smart enough to have a computer do a real IQ test?
It would have to be hours long to do any kind of serious real test.
I've never found anything more than 10 minutes.
U?

Find me one that takes an hour to score on the internet and we can take it and then laugh at how off it is because you really need about 10 times as many questions to get a real sample rate.

Building such a process is a larger task than any one person could probably do.
It would take a team of very lucid psychologists workign with a team of really good programmers.


Say, lets go do that ove rat my site?

REFORM General
Curiosity drives learning if it is allowed to do so and not shut down.
Curiosity is shut down via the current system, creating the ADD disorder sudden appearance on the charts. One half of ADD is a person who can’t pay attention. The other half is a boring culture, delivery of information modus
operandi.
Curiosity driven learning involves more brain area participation. If a person doesn’t really like their experience, the subconscious mind edits it and doesn’t learn from it. Using curiosity driven learning potentially accelerates the learning curve such that it would not be unreasonable for the society of the future to expect the equivalent of a multiple PhD education from High School.
The largest obstacle to curiosity driven learning is the current student to teacher ratio. Curiosity driven learning requires a personal curriculum to be developed per child, an enormous labor process for most teachers. The cure is to use peer tutoring, and older child tutoring in conjunction with professional testers. Teachers are being asked do two different jobs, Teaching and Testing. Testing is incredibly underutilized. How can you know what a child is ready to learn if you have not learned from them who they are and what they know already?
The second largest obstacle is a lazy educational system which must be corrected
and re-educated itself. The educational paradigm being taught for use is not the one which is being taught in reform education psychology and sociology classes.
The first battery of tests should be; IQ tests, aptitude tests, Sanity tests, Type of intelligence per intelligence tests, learning style tests, performance tests, peer skills tests, comprehensive topical subject tests, and in general, any test which can be used to effectively appraise an individual child for the purposes of creating for that child a personalized curriculum.
The topics of psychology, sociology, conversational logic, and ethics should be added to the current curriculum for all Middle School (ages 12 to 14 or grades 6 thru and High Schools
Personality differences including learning styles and Types of intelligence
Can mean that people learn in very different ways. Groups of students should be organized without regard so much to age as to learning style. A class full of visual
Learners from 3 age groups is better than a class full of kinesthetic learners and visual learners who find each other distracting and each others interactions with the teacher bizarre. Throw in some introverts and some extroverts and a speed-reader or two, and a teachers modus operandi cannot hope to reach well the different types of Students that s/he is teaching.
10. Our society is composed of a population which is by about 50 percent Anti-intellectual. (As part of a deep and long term attempt at denial of science facts)
The sheeple will crucify the nerds, that’s the end result of pack psychology and anti-intellectualist mob events. Both alleged “Sides” in the great orchestrated argument between left and right are delusional dogmatist simple minded over simplified versions of reality, oversimplified problem solving process, and thus oversimplified and therefore
Usually counterproductive pseudo solutions. Polarity does not contain sanity, both sides are polarized via each other, but the line that connects those two dots at no point in time Ever gets around to the big picture or the whole truth. Evolution and mother nature will on the other hand favor the nerds.
