    The online tests are fun, doesn't have to be taken seriously guys :D
    I might go for a proper test, but I'm falling into a depression with school at the moment, we'll see.

    Perhaps I should go in for a proper test. I'm both bad with people and miserable, I can only hope there's a high IQ to balance it out! :D

    Wait, surely, anyone who knows how to troll and troll well has an IQ of well over 160. We must be off the charts!

    Weird. I took an IQ test once and it came back AB. I have no idea what I did wrong, but they gave me a cookie and a juice box when I was done.

    No, but I really enjoy a good pair of slacks, and people seem to like me because I'm rarely late.

    I took a Mensa IQ when I was 20 and scored 136, and I got to join. I am pretty good at logical/technical/mechanical/mathematical thinking, and the IQ-test they used was based purely on those 'skills' and not a mix. I'm not good at language or general knowledge. Just like everybody else I have my strengths and weaknesses.

    Well how about atleast pasting the URL to the test you made? That way the results would be even remotely comparable or make some sense.

    Sure, if you eat a candle without fire, you're retarded. If you eat a candle with fire, you're uber talented :sigh:

    Thanks Pete... concerningly that one was true! I was going down a hill, it was cold, I had my head down, got to the bottom of the hill looked up to find myself literally a foot away from the tail end of a rather large, parked cement mixer. In my defence it was 6.30 am and it was parked on the yellow zig zag markings outside a school so it shouldn't have been there. I went head first into the back of it, shattered my helmet (and that is no exaggeration), destroyed the front forks and wheel of my bike, and broke his rear light cluster.
    Then I went on to continue my paper round that was over a mile long up and down a lot of hills cos I'm hardcore!:rock:

    Before the car took a chunk out of my skull, I tested on the MENSA test at 185, but declined to join. I think the tests are biased and slanted to only allow certain groups, like WASPs entry.

    After, I swear a LOT, I tend to throw things and I fix the spelling on signs with sharpie markers. You tell me.

    I have no idea what mine is but in my opinion school test results are a load of crap. Some people do better and can cope with the stress, etc, other's can't. To add to this, someone may do better than me on a test but in the real world experience will almost always win over what "numbers" you scored in theory and whatnot.

    Book / school marks don't translate into success / street smart. It's all about the application of what you know!

    When I was a kid I was put in a remedial class, my dad went ape.
    Had my IQ tested and it came out at 147.

    I am, more was, dyslexic.

    I Still have trouble spelling some words, but 99% if the time you'd not notice. Once I learned how to deal with language in my own way I passed GCSE and A-Level English, I got an F at GCSE wha I was in school. They had no idea how to teach me.

    My score in IQ tests I did as a kid depended on the linguistic component, anywhere between 130 and 160.

    If you took a score on pure abstract thought, and very low linguisic component I'd be 1 in 1000. 80 guys or so registered in theis forum would in theory have a similar or higher IQ.

    But here's the kicker.

    IQ's are bollocks......


    IQ cant measure artistic ability, Empathy, Drive, Ambition, Musicality and many more things.
    With My IQ I could have been anything. But I'm a dosser.

    I have very little drive or ambition, without it my IQ is of little use.

    There are guys with IQ's of 80 or less who are multi-millionaires.

    Folks get hung up on IQ's and they shouldn't.


    Don't get me on that penis waving organisation Mensa.
    The whole point of Mensa, seems to be that your able to tell people you've joined Mensa.
    What an arrogant bunch of elitist pr*&<S.


    IQ's may show what your mental ability may be, but it has relevence to your potential.
