I just wanted to see if the same thing happens to other people like it happened to me. I realize online IQ tests are not the most reliable things, but if you don't cheat they are generally a good indicator of where you are intellectually.

 

Classic IQ test - Classic

 

"Super" IQ test (This one seems to be the newer of the two tests) - Super

 

I'd like for, when people have some free time, those of you who want to do it to take BOTH tests. Preferably not one right after another, and show the results here. I took the tests a few days apart, and I noticed even though I had !@#$%^&*umed the Super IQ test would be harder, I finished it more quickly and had a much higher score, and I want to see if other people see the same thing, and how accurate they believe the test to be. I wish the tests were considered Iron-Clad accurate, because my scores were 135 on the Classic, and 147 on the Super ^_^

 

And yes, I realize we're probably going to have a bunch of people come on here and either just lie and say they got like 158 on both, or find the answers online and show us some link to their bogus score of 192.

 

 

Edit2: Okay, I guess it does work to post a link to results.

 

My classic results

 

My Super results

 

Edit: Oh, and here is a basic scale.

 

IQ Scale

 

Over 140 - Genius or almost genius

120 - 140 - Very superior intelligence

110 - 119 - Superior intelligence

90 - 109 - Average or normal intelligence

mega_shok.gif - 89 - Dullness

70 - 79 - Borderline deficiency in intelligence

Under 70 - Feeble-mindedness

 

Normal Distribution of IQ Scores

 

50% of IQ scores fall between 90 and 110

70% of IQ scores fall between 85 and 115

95% of IQ scores fall between 70 and 130

99.5% of IQ scores fall between 60 and 140

 

More detailed higher IQ scale

 

115-124 - Above average

125-134 - Gifted

135-144 - Very gifted

145-164 - Genius

165-179 - High genius

180-200 - Highest genius

Classic:

 

Your IQ score is 136

 

This number is based on a scientific formula that compares how many questions you answered correctly on the Classic IQ Test relative to others.

 

Your Intellectual Type is Insightful Linguist. This means you are highly intelligent and have the natural fluency of a writer and the visual and spatial strengths of an artist. Those skills contribute to your creative and expressive mind. And that's just some of what we know about you from your test results.

Didn't feel like taking super. Bored after taking the classic :\

Your Intellectual Type is Precision Processor. This means you're exceptionally good at discovering quick solutions to problems, especially ones that involve math or logic. You're also resourceful and able to think on your feet. And that's just some of what we know about you from your test results.

Your IQ score is 124

 

There were too many questions where you have to be english as your mother language to understand it correctly :( (like !@#$%^&* i know what plum or apricot mean :/)

I think there is some research that indicates that you can 'prepare' for an IQ test simply by taking IQ tests. Your brain starts to recognize patterns, logical thinking replaces the drug-infested scatter-brained feebleness and you actually improve as you go. If you want to score high, take the test several times - generally you should improve 10-15%.

 

I didn't take it. Sorry. However, if I had to guess, I think certain groups of people would score better than others. Those groups being - zone owners who have successfully grown population against the odds (Blazen, Adm. Kirk, etc), coders who have made significant contribution to ss (Ratio, Smong, Bak, etc) and graphic artists who have also made significant contributions (Wormhole Surfer, Anaconda & Legas, Kryn, etc). Folks scoring on the opposite side probably dont play ss as I believe much of the population of ss is fairly gifted.

Your IQ score is 124!

 

You have a strong ability to process visual-spatial and mathematical information and this, combined with your logical mind, means you are a Visual Mathematician. You can manipulate multiple parts of the picture (or problem) to come up with a solution and can understand the "big picture," which is partly why people may turn to you for direction.

 

Like Einstein, your ability to detect patterns and your skills in maths and logic, make it natural for you to come up with ideas and theories that simplify processes for everyone.

I'd have to agree with S!@#$%^&*. Most people seem to have score 120+, which is mostly what I expected from this group.

 

Seems only one person took the Super IQ test though =/

I just want to know if I was the only one who scored significantly higher on it and thought it was easier, or if anyone else thinks the same, or if it was just a fluke and I was feeling better/thinking more clearly when I took the Super one than when I took the Classic one.

The younger you are (or put in for your age), the higher your "IQ" will be. These online IQ tests are mostly BS because they're generic one-set tests -- in a real IQ test, none of us would score near what we did.

 

Anyway...

 

Pimp, your IQ score is 113

 

The way you think about things makes you an Analytic Detective. This means you are an unusually talented problem-solver. You are able to think through a process step-by-step, and know how to zero in on anything that is even remotely illogical. Compared to others you are very adept at discerning numerical patterns and solving difficult equations.

 

How did we determine that your thinking style is that of an Analytic Detective? When we examined your test results further, we analyzed how you scored on 8 dimensions of intelligence: spatial, organizational, abstract reasoning, logical, mechanical, verbal, visual and numerical. The 3 dimensions you scored highest on combine to make you an Analytic Detective. Only 6 out of 1,000 people have this rare combination of abilities.

 

 

"Only" 6 out of 1000? Considering the current population count, that's actually fairly common...

Actually, 6 out of 1,000 isn't common at all. Sure, you can say that 6 out of a thousand is still a lot because of how massive our population is, but that doesn't change the fact that it isn't common.

Then again, maybe some people consider something that occurs less than 1% of the time to be common.

 

And actually, the scores are not always BS, I think it really depends on how the person deals with tests like that. Myself and several other students were given an IQ test by our Guidance office at school, and I scored a 137. And if you average the two scores I got online, it's a 139, so I would say two points off isn't quite "not scoring near what I did."

 

I've found the test to be fairly accurate. While obviously not right on target (you can't expect an online test to be) they seem very good indicators. I've had six of my friends that I've known for quite a while take it and none of the results have seemed far off, it seems as if people still score within 5-10 points of what they would on an actual IQ test.

And the point is that compared to six billion people on earth, that's a very small number.

 

!@#$%^&*, even if you score like a 150 for an IQ, and you're in the top 99.7% or something, that still leaves roughly 20,000,000 people that are equal or greater intelligence than yourself, but someone would still have to be a fool to say that it would be "common" for someone to be smarter than said person.

 

In my opinion you really can't call something common until it occurs 40%-60% of the time, hence why..

 

50% of IQ scores fall between 90 and 110 <- this would be considered common, the average IQ.

 

And

 

99.5% of IQ scores fall between 60 and 140 <- Even though there are 30,000,000 people out there who fall outside those ranges, it is far from "common"

Josh, your IQ score is 125

 

Your overall intelligence quotient is the result of a scientifically-tested formula based on how many questions you answered correctly. But it's only part of what we learned about you from your answers on the test. We also determined the way you process information.

 

The way you think about things makes you a Concrete Thinker. This means your intelligence is grounded in a clear understanding of what is happening around you. In situations where others are confused, things are crystal clear to you. In addition, you have the unusual combination of strong verbal and numerical skills. You are able to solve equations and then use your verbal skills to explain those solutions to others

 

How did we determine that your thinking style is that of a Concrete Thinker? When we examined your test results further, we analyzed how you scored on 8 dimensions of intelligence: spatial, organizational, abstract reasoning, logical, mechanical, verbal, visual and numerical.
