Not that I think that IQ is the entirety of intelligence, and its not, but yes I have an IQ of over 190. Its rare and most people think I am lying about it.
Or perhaps you are a schizophrenic and honestly believe you have an IQ of 190, when in fact you don't.
Cause we all know that the perceived "bad guy" is always ugly, crazy, and stupid. People naturally do not like inconsistencies and whenever possible people group everything together into schematics. You've already formed a flash judgment about me and when something didn't fit, like me flipping the whole situation upside down, you immediately attempt to rectify the situation by claiming that I am crazy and telling lies. It doesn't fit in your schematic for me so the self-fulfilling prophesy must be pushed in another way.
People who truly have an IQ of 190 are 1 in a billion. Schizophrenics, ignorants and liars (even pathological ones) are A LOT more common. I am inclined to think you don't have an IQ of 190.

Obviously they use similar questions with a different answer. It would be redundant if the questions were the same every single time. Its like the SAT or ACT. The questions aren't the same every time.
If the questions were so similar you actually practiced before you took the last exam, you defeated the purpose of the exam. Besides, online IQ tests don't have scientific validity.
I'm not trying to totally get in the middle here of whether or not this guy has an IQ of 190. Anyway, I do want to thank you for pointing that out. Some online IQ tests do have scientific validity. I scored higher on the ones that were as close to a standardized test or ones done by people with PhD's than the ones you see on myspace. So maybe my score isn't quite a 20 point drop as much as I just took a test that has no scientific validity. When I can get a good half hour or so of my time to devote to taking one with more validity, I will do so just to see. I just can't always get uninterrupted time (as the ones I remember taking timed you on it as well) with my kids and all. There's no way I could do it during office hours at a psychologist's office with the kids. Not unless I paid for a baby sitter, then it would hardly seem worth it.
