Poll: Do you know your IQ? What is it?

[AfricanSwallow]

I bet that everyone or 95% of people on here that says their IQ is higher than 150 are lying or the IQ test they have taken is a very quick internet one.


I don't take IQ tests very seriously. The fact that i get different scores on each one proves how amazingly inaccurate they are. I usually get between 115 and 145, my latest being 135.

... agreed.
I've done a verified IQ test twice, and my results differed significantly.
Hence the distrust of them by the psychological community.

Mine is 210.

I just did a quick search on Stephen Hawking, a person commonly held as one of the smartest people in the world. His IQ is about 160. I seriously doubt yours is 210.

Like I said, READ the f*cking arguments that we went over in the other poll. My FIRST argument was That it would be increadably ignorant of me if I tried to prove my intellect every moron in the world.

Also, Stephen Hawking(While I completely respect him) was held as one of the smartest YEARS ago. The man hasn't done many notable achievements in the last decade. The only reasons my name hasn't come up yet is:

1. My name is Justin Michael Smith(Not exactly the most unique name ever) That's why I prefer everyone around me to refer to me as 'Frost'(a nickname that would require explaining if you don't know me).

2. Many of my ideas and views are overlooked due to my age(18 this april) the scientific community is lined in old traditions that prevent anyone of this day and age to do anything notable anymore.

IQ is based on a normal distribution. By definition, half of the population have an IQ of 100 or over. If that is not the case, it is a flawed test. One percent of people have an IQ of 135 or more. One in a thousand have an IQ of 146 or more. One in a million have an IQ of 176 or more. One in a billion (meaning at current world population estimates, seven people on the planet) have an IQ of 190 or more.

No-one has an IQ of 210 or more. If you could prove you were the smartest guy on earth, you'd not even reach 200.

Get some evidence, a diploma or something, and scan it. For example, contact Guiness Book of World Records. As I said, the current record holder is at 170-180 right now, should be easy for you to beat. Then you can throw your page in all of our faces.

Your name would've come up in local news papers, at least, the instant you got your result. Show us the article.

110.

 

[Vlane]

I made an IQ test two years ago. It was 132. Maybe that changed since then.

Edit: Oh it was a test for adults because at the time I was 17 and I didn't want to make a 13-17 test because then the score would be higher I think.

... and I would add that it's difficult to believe that some of you who normally post with suspect (to say the least) grammar and spelling are also all in the 99th percentile of global intelligence.

True that be.


Hehe *snort* sorry. But I do find it strange when someone who can't spell claims to have a high IQ.


If you have an IQ of 210, you should be the most intelligent person in Mensa.

what if they have dyslexia?

EDIT: Never mind, Ninja'd by SomeBritishDude.

Dyslexia is a poor excuse for not studying.

Every single person that made a mistake and then proclaimed "I HAVE DYSLEXIA!!!" was just too lazy to study or try to learn grammar.

I never "proclaimed" I was dyslexic. I was diagnosed.

I've taken extra classes, both in and out of school until I was 16 in reading and writing. I've certainly tried.

I'm not going to be polite about this. Your full of shit.

I'm sure you wouldn't mind to show us your test result right? A smart person like you sure keeps that thing or at least made a picture of it.

I'll repost my previous comments to address this ridiculous person

"Mine is 210. I'm guessing this entire poll was developed because of the long winded arguments that none believers were discussing with me in the "Intelligent of gifted" poll."

_____________________________________________

Ha, I never did read the other poll, but I got a kick out that one.

I'll let you folks in on a news flash though, he doesn't have an IQ of 210.
It's easy for me to say that definitively, because I've never heard of you.... and you would have the highest IQ score in human history.

... well, technically tied for the highest score in human history, with Kim Ung-yong, a Korean with a verified IQ of 210.
He was able to read in Japanese, Korean, German, and English at the age of four... the same age he also started solving calculus problems.

He was invited to live and study in the United States at the behest of NASA when he was seven, and received his PhD in Physics at 16.
He also has a PhD in Civil Engineering.

I assure you, you do not have an IQ of 210.

.... and I will also add... the prefix you were grasping at was "non".
But perhaps you were too busy with advanced math to spell check.



... it didn't seem to a particularly limiting factor to that gentleman.
And again "incredibly". Surely someone whose views are "overlooked by the scientific community" would at least be able to spell even the most pedestrian of words correctly.

... unfortunately (but predictably), this thread has descended into the nonsense category.
I suggest we not feed the trolls (pretender trolls - more fun than the regular always-negative trolls) anymore and let this one die.

I might just do that. It will take me a few years though(age thing again)

If you had read my arguments on the other poll, then you would know that my score is an AVERAGE from nearly two dozen test I took. So there is no 'official' printout with this one score.

 

[Sarcastic Chimp]

I don't know, so I'll put an answer that is the answer for any question! 17

 

[megapenguinx]

184....
and that was in second grade. I think it should have increased by now, considering I've never done anything to damage my brain (although I did visit 4chan a few times). I was a member of MENSA, but I didn't want to pay the member fee's so I dropped out.

EDIT: Hmm, bad memory. I think it was either 164 or 174. I just remember it was about 150.

 

[Simriel]

162. I am VERY smart.

Your IQ drops if you get older. You should know that if you are that smart.

And you are not improving your image by insulting the person you are talking to.

Yeah, I know people are "diagnosed". But it IS a poor excuse. Here's how it works:

1. Kid is poor at grammar.
2. Parents try or don't try to help him.
3. Kid doesn't try.
4. Parents go to a psychologist who says "you have dyslexia, here's a piece of paper saying so, now you get 30 more minutes at tests and you can make twice the amount of mistakes as the normal person".
5. People think dyslexia is real.

Any dys- illness is just a poor excuse. I could say a have a dysgraphia, because I write "like with a chicken's nail", how we say it here.

But there is no such thing as dysgraphia. I was just too lazy (or just not challenged enough at school) to practice my writing. Same as why my "dyslexist" friends are too lazy to study.

 

[Jovlo]

I took several tests on the internet. I always scored between 123 and 144. I don't believe this.
I took a more serious test once, and then I got 'only' 111.

I think you mean 42 not 17. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...fe.2C_the_Universe.2C_and_Everything_.2842.29

 

[insanelich]

My internet IQ is, according to this thread, around 300.

Real tests say "above average; precise testing impossible". (And yes, testing me properly is literally impossible. Health conditions.)

EDIT: Also, whoah are there a bunch of... well, I think you know what this thread is full of.

EDIT: Also, DolphinWhacker - here's something simple and useful to try if your real IQ is over 200. Try reconstructing the theories of astrophysics assuming light has a mass and determine what mass doesn't make the system fall down.

 

[Jark212]

136, but I did it like a year ago...
