sparked off by lord kugai (, nobish, kumquat, etc.) who says he has an IQ of 131 and use this as a base to every "insult" he gave out. some people take IQ ratings highly and some disregard. i know that my IQ is well above average, but i dont use it to say im smarter than everyone else. i just wanted to know roughly what the intelligence of the forums are...

i have an IQ of 131 (and, no im not related to kugai)

*note:

1)you are at your peak at around about 22-25.
2)90-100 is an average IQ
3)different ages, have different marking systems. (ie. 120 at 24 will be say 10 questions correct, where as for a 60 year old it will be 8 questions right.

I got 113 on the link you gave me, but that test annoyed me because a couple of times the test skipped to the next question while I was still answering the last and so I missed 2 questions instead of one, and I managed to accidentally click on the wrong answer a couple of times. I'd much rather do one on paper :(

Still at 113 thats above average :D

no... because that would mean 2 things

if someone got 99, you would percieve them as below average.

youre drawing a big dividing line and so falling into the trap that tests are absolute.

I got 120 on the only test I've ever done. It was an official school 'oh this kids acting up' one. I was only 8.

All downhill from there ;)

When I was 16 or 17 I did a proper IQ test (i.e. not one of those ones over the internet) at MENSA.

My IQ was around 140-150.


Obviously it's dropped off now. I'm not sure what it is but an IQ test is only relative, anyway. To me it's not an indication of intelligence, more the ability to perform logical tasks. Of course, a proper IQ test would test your ability more than the normal spectrum of logical puzzles and tests.
