WTF? I only fail in 9 tables and I get a normal above average I.Q.? I saw people that failed in most tables and got a IQ highter than mine :S Well i was taking this test while I was a little busy (I was talking to someone in MSN, checking my Internet accounts, etc) so I do many pages in a hurry and for that I could got a highter score doing it with all my attention, but anyways is strange.

Does the age influences? Because I'm young and I can't believe that someone with 30 to 40 years old, although failing in most tables, obtains a bigger I.Q (supposedly, the I.Q. increases with the age, so the test should be more exigent with adults).

I usually score in this class of test between 115 and 135, in one made by a psychologist and very similar to this one I scored in the 98 percentile (which is between 130 and 135 or something like that).

For me this test is not very reliable, the scores are very incosistent between people.

I did the test again more focussed, taking my time and without distractions and I got these results:

I translate all to you:

Name: Sextus70
Age: 17
Correct answers: 57/60
Pecentile: 95
I.Q level: Very above average
Range: I
IQ points: 130

Muuuuuuch beter than the first time, but anyways I don't trust in the reliability of this test, because the age stuff is very inconsistent to me, even some people who got the same or even less correct pages that I obtained, only because they were 24 years or more old, got more I.Q. points. Like someone said, that would have sense if the person who takes the test is 50 or more years old, because in that age the I.Q. would begin to fall, but I don't think that since the 25 or 30 years old, that would happen, at the contrary, at those ages the I.Q. should be in its highest level.

In few words, if you are an adult, this test makes you win lossing XD.

When age is factored into IQ tests (which was the basis of the original formulation of the IQ test), they are actually much less reliable. IQ tests were a method of figuring out which children needed special education. For adults, it doesn't really matter.

IQ tests can only be taken once to be considered valid.

110. I'm not particularly gifted in this way.

But take in count that in the first time I did it with many distractions, so I consider that in that time the result was not totally valid because I wasn't totally focussed in the test. Are you going to tell me that doing a test while talking to someone in MSN, checking some accounts, etc will help you to do it at the 100%? I don't see nothing wrong trying again it if you know that you was not using all your attention in it.

I saw many people in this topic that did the same thing as me (in the first time they were listening music and things like that) and I didn't see that the people told them the same thing as you to me, so I believe that is you the one who is wrong.

Anyways, What is the matter if you take a I.Q. most than one time? (if you want to check your I.Q. some weeks, months or years after Why I can't do a test again :S?), because they don't offer you clues to know what answers were right and wrong and for that they will always make use your mind.

Does anybody knows for sure the answer of question number 47?

Today I foolishly paid £15 each to take the Wechsler & Raven IQ tests.

My results were as follows:

Wechsler - 140 (which puts me in the "Highly Gifted" range)
Raven - 143 (same as above)

I have now vowed that this is the last time that I will be spending money on IQ tests. I am in no way intellectually gifted - handicapped, perhaps - and my pitifully mediocre academic performance proves it.

I´d like to try, but the link only takes me to an "Error" page. How did you find it?

I tried it and the free test site won't give you a score. The other one charges cash and they can take a flying leap.

I had a hard time concentrating after a while and started to get really nervous and stim. I suspect I have ADD so I don't know if it affected the result....

I've given up on online IQ tests. The last three I took - within the space of one day - gave me results of 138, 90 (????), and 119, respectively.

The last "official" IQ test I took (years ago - and not online) gave me 127....and the one several years prior to that, which I took senior year of high school, resulted in 135. I either got very stupid very fast, or there is a bit of variation in the results one might get depending upon the test.

All I know is, I'm not flat-out stupid (usually) and I'm definitely no genius...but whatever I am IQ-wise, I get by.

I just took this on raventest.net.. at the end it does ask you to pay but if you position your mouse pointer over the tab/favicon thing, you'll see the page title tool-tip thing, which will say "just took an IQ test and the result is: " with your result.

At least I think it was my result, but I'd know for sure if someone else would be willing to take it and tell me if theirs also says " above 153" when they're done.
