Have you got any basis for this? Any evidence at all? i don't know if this is what happened to your friends, but its certainly not what happened to me.Abedeus said:

You don't know what you're talking about. I'd advise you to sit quietly and listen to the adults talking for a bit, or you can keep on discussing something over your head and looking more and more foolish.Abedeus said:
There is a real disability called "dyslexia" [http://dpi.wi.gov/sped/ld-dyslexia.html]; it can be diagnosed clinically, and it shows up on MRI [http://www.eradimaging.com/site/article.cfm?ID=244]. It is indeed overdiagnosed sometimes, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Guess why national tests never have people with more than 160-170 IQ?insanelich said:
Because it would mean you are in 0.003% of world's population, as only 0.003% of the world has 160+ IQ.
Even my 148 is unbelievably high... that is, it was, now it's a bit less, considering it has been about 4 years since my last serious test.
I especially rofl at person claiming to have IQ 200. Everyone who has 200+ IQ is known world-wide. You can find them at the Internet.
No, I was meaning something else. Something that probably would get me warned. Something you are.Abedeus said:
I don't know mine because I honestly think that IQ is overrated. I think that if I knew, it would just provide temptation for me to become an egotistical dumbass if it was high or a petty dumbass if low. So I try to keep that stuff away from me.
I know someone with dyslexia that isn't just lazy, it is hard for him, he has trouble reading and writing, and is very insecure about it.Abedeus said:
Nope, but I may have to use that...Vlane said:
I was thinking of the South Park episode "Awesome-O" when a man asks Cartman (dressed as Awesome-O) "How much wood could a wood-chuck chuck, if a wood-chuck could chuck wood?" to which he replies "uh...17"
Somewhere in the 120-140 range I believe. I haven't taken a proper test; people charge for the tests (Stupid buggers)
No, you don't wait a few years. The Guiness book of world records doesn't have an age limit. You're 18. Call them up and say you score 210 on IQ tests. Have them test you. You can be in there by next year's issue.DolpinWacker64 said:
Also, you say you AVERAGE 210 on IQ tests? As previously stated in this thread, there are two commonly recognized IQ tests that are accepted as reliable sources. Even if you've taken both, it would hardly be that hard for you to remember both figures (especially if you're such a genius).
Also, you say there's no official paper with your result, because there are so many. Well, just give us one, then. We'll settle for any test result you have. Show us.
When my college made me do a dyslexia test, part of it was a general IQ test, i scored in the top 99.9 percentile and my spatial awareness is off the charts. But then my memory is in the bottom 4 percentile. The only reason i can still remember this is i kept the report the tester made and whip it out whenever i need a good old ego boost.
And in the UK the average IQ is actually 111 on which ever test mensa use as they had re-calculated what the mean was for a long old while and everyone had been eating their greens and getting way cleverer.
