Sigh! Had only 2 more questions to go, but had to take my car for repairs, so the video loading failed and need to do it again. I guess, not having English as a native language, did cost me some questions.
I don't really trust IQ tests. Especially online ones. I trust even less to any results done by others.

Same here. I actually didn't not try for this. They asked where do I expect to end up and I said 90, I ended it with 100.Ben Bazooka said:
If that is your opinion, so be it. Although, from my perspective, there's more IQ tests that were better than this one.greasedweasel said:
IQ tests are useless and bore me...
i got to the video bit and quit...
bah, i generally get in and around 140, usually just under... though i didnt know some of the words in the harder parts of the first round... like knowing what a specific word means makes you magically clevererer, and that i r stuped cus i not herd it b4.
what does your IQ even do exactly?
i was under the impression that it was your ability to learn things,
if so, why are all these IQ tests so general-knowledge-y? you could easily be taught the specific answers and therefore affect the result, much like the fact that a word ive never heard of before turns up in this one affects mine... that doesnt make me less able to learn it, it means i havent yet.
and if it's not your ability to learn things, IQ is then pretty meaningless because you could just learn stuff to increase it, pretty much like you can in this case, just by taking the test twice or more.
theres many more things i could complain about on the subject of IQ tests... but in general, i just disagree with them...
i do like quizzes though, so i somehow end up doing them from time to time...

I just don't trust these things. They're stupid, and I.Q isn't an accurate measure of every kind of intelligence. I did give it a chance, then I saw the timer. Intelligence doesn't mean you can solve problems in 20 seconds or less... Or rather, people who can't aren't necessarily less intelligent. Still, I don't doubt that I'm smarter than many Canadians. I'm doing really advanced mathematics for one thing. Imaginary numbers, vectors, linear programming, super hard algebra. And I get to do "3D" graphing this year. With a X, Y and Z axis.
