154in one and 159 in another both done by a Mensa worker but i doubt its right i'm too clumsy and horrifically dyslexic
Problem is: you take enough of these types of tests, you eventually learn how to do well at them. That's just how the brain works. Then the test becomes subjective since people who've 'trained' (read: done many) will generally do better then people who never saw one before.
i've done it a couple of times and got 122 and 139, which was right after each other. if there was an accurate way of measuring it that was used by everyone to provide a more reliable answer, i'd try it but I wouldn't necessarily live my life according to it. I'd still be the same videogaming, chip consuming twit 
There is no "right" way to measure IQ.
It's not something you can measure, it doesn't have any units. Average is 100, and all is relative, but you can't "measure" it correctly.
I'm supposed to be "highly gifted" which is between 125 to 135, but I know that the tests I did were bullocks. Did I spell that correctly? I never get to use British lang these days.

It doesn't matter how smart you are in this world. Like a wise man once said, "its not what you know, who you know or how you know only who knows you." I have found this to be very true.
the only one's i've taken are online so they aren't too accurate im guessing, but its around 130.
All IQ tests for me come back with the result 'Unknown.' and then I need to avoid government researchers trying to cut me open for like a week until I back-hack their satellite communications program and download a chicken virus direct into their brains.
Got a 92 on the 2007 BBC test. cold shower after mostly scoring 130-ish on on-line tests =D
Srsly, they don't mean much. It's (as usual) not the 'size' that counts but how you use it.

I did the first national one they ran in Australia - got around 140 I think?
I don't really know how that related to anything real world though - I'm inclined to say it doesn't, however I haven't gone off and done a study of IQ vs what people have done in their lives so what would I know?
I consider myself smarted then most people and this has proven to be mostly true. I currently work in IT for a financial institution.
My personal failing is my memory. I am indeed smart - understanding things has never been the issue for me, remembering everything is.

I did one a few years back, but it was free and on the internet, so I usually disregard it.
People don't care about IQ scores these days, and neither do I.
I got 137, btw.

I tried one and got 143, which is apparently just inside the genius category. So yeah, not going to bother doing any more!
But seriously, IQ tests are almost completely worthless. If people are scoring, say, below 90 or above 170 regularly on different tests (which in itself is doubtful, considering they're not that consistent) then its fair to say they're fairly unintelligent or highly intelligent.
The gap in the middle could mean anything though.
