simple, the last time i got mine checked, when i was five, i got a 130, even though they couldnt get me to pay attention, or so i am told.
Grats, do they test useful knowledge or is it like E-penis viagra for the poorly endowed?

(No personal offense to you, but having never been tested, and not seeing how you can really measure a persons intellect through simple questions and answers I often look at peoples' gloating about their IQ's as the equivalent of 12 year old kids nearing 13 and comparing their penis sizes to gratify their egos.)

(I'd also like to add that mines bigger than yours. ^^)

your life experiences and ability to learn freely often effect how smart you are.
(at least in my opinion)


online IQ tests are even more unrealistic than the ones you can take in real life.

my IQ test administered by an educational psychologist was invalid. Even by the lofty standards of IQ tests.

It was a good 10 years ago so I doubt it is the same now:

154 on math and logic and 143 overall.

172, but ironically enough, it just means I'm intelligent enough to know that the measure of raw intelligence is worthless without juxtaposition. I'd still be a moron without common sense or wisdom.

Just to add to the to everyone saying i.q tests are bs... they are...
the bbc did a national thingy a while back, i got 120 on that, did a random internet one and got 103 and i actually did the mensa one and got 155.

Really the only way to say if you are smart or stupid is, have you ever responded to a spam e-mail and given some random internets people your money? if so, you're a dumbass. If not, you're not a dumbass. And when it comes down to it, thats really the only two levels of intelligence that matter.

I'm pretty sure that, if I would ever bother taking an IQ-test, I'd score somewhere above 100. Certainly no genius.

I feel sooo stupid when compared to all the posters above me... Pffft.

136 yay! I even got some stupid certificate from the high I.Q. society or something like that. Makes for good tender, so I would recommend it. Otherwise, no one cares about I.Q. anymore since they realized that it has nothing to do with actual intelligence or with what you know. Most people don't even realize that the I.Q. test is supposed to measure your ability to learn, not how smart you are.

I think the test grading systems vary from test to test, too, because on the test i took, 140 was around the max and it meant "genius", and i see people here with 170+.
You have to understand that they all took it as children. Kids always score really high because their brains are working and growing as hard as they ever will. If they took the test now, they would most likely end up with an average score. I.Q. tests need to be taken regularly for the results to be applicable.

My school wanted me to take the Wechsler one when I was 17. My verbal result was at the top. My performance result wasn't like that; it might have been in the 130's but I don't remember it exactly. I've probably got the results somewhere.

Most of the people in this thread are probably mistaken or lying, and everyone should read Nomad's post.

Edit: I just asked my mother and she said I got 143 which equals 99.8th percentile overall. I just looked it up and that matches.

I find it very hard to believe that everyone here is of above average intelligence, despite the fact that everyone thinks IQ tests are bullshit.

I took a test and under the "remember a line of numbers" test my brother interrupted me twice. The result was:
116... Pretty good I guess :?
I was too lazy too try again so its somewhere around that.

The only thing an IQ shows is how good you are at IQ tests.
True that! In school, the IQ tests existed out of like 60% math questions and I suck at math.
