Frankly speaking, on-line IQ tests are stupid. How can a 30 question test accurately tell me how smart (or dumb) I am? Yet another example of our McDonalds mentality of drive-thru believability.
This thing said I was 149, and I'm about the dumbest person I know. It's another flattering site that will give you really complimentary results so that you'll pay the $9.95 for even more flattering results.
I need a beer.
he's totally right , this test is intended to be business. 90% of people here can't be all Einsteins
I took an actual IQ test in college that took about 2 hours, and that one scored me at 132 (at age 20). This one in the original post was pretty close to accurate, putting me at 128 (at age 40). I take these online IQ tests from time to time (yes, I'm bored) and they all run around the same figure for me (128 - 135). Granted, they're nowhere near as 'thorough' as the one I took in college, but for a snapshot IQ figure (averaged out) they're close enough to show you roughly where you stand.
