Test if you're smart

Take the most right test, I guess even 1 question provides you with a 160+ IQ :o.

IQ tests just remind me how thick I am, so I don't take them.

Kozak I took that test and tried to solve the first five. I had the feeling I was coming close at the 5th puzzle but I didnt solve it. Did you actually solve one?

I tried the one on the left ('ultimate IQ test'), and I scored 151. The first set of exercises was quite annoying with all of those unfolded polyhedra. I feel too queasy to take the rightmost one now.

Have you ever done a real IQ test? Only really smart people score around 130-140.

Nice one Kozak :).

Although i generally score high on IQ tests, i dont really like them that much. I doubt that they can sufficiently gauge the intelligence of someone ... a lot of it is open to past experience and education.

Good scores on IQ tests show how good you're at IQ tests :) It's pretty obvious one has to be smart to score well on a test, but a bad score doesn't mean one is "dumb". I prefer looking at what people have done/do and set a temporary "smartness level" (or whatever) from that.
And I've never completed an IQ test, so don't ask ;)

Well it's obvious IQ tests are made by physchologists who know next to nothing about brain development. Physchologists make tests based on experience and developed parts of the brain (thos who play with lego will have a better geometrical insight into problems).

Real intelligence, has been proposed, to be caused by a certain selectivity and speed with which neurons make connections and make assocations. This can only be measured in the 5-12 age of a developing human, and only partly in mature humans.

Nah... IQ test measure your intelegence (when done right), not your wisdom... two different things... you can be stupid as hell, and still have a great wisdom... I score around 120-130 normally... :)

Yes, I'm also around 130 usually. I have an extremely bad memory though, so my real-world intelligence might be some lower :roll:

I took the ultimate one and scored a 136 but i got boed about half way through it and slacked off...ive taken a real one abd got much higher...but i think coelurus is right in that all it proves is that you are good at IQ tests...
