Silly IQ test.

What were your results?

162 here. Not that I'd really trust online IQ tests, but they're still fun now and then. (And you'd best not be stealing my results, anyone! :p )

I always get stuck on the "Which of these completes the pattern" and "Rearrange the letters [for whatever purpose]" questions, myself.

Not for nothing but I wouldn't trust those tests. I 162 would put you in perhaps the .001% or so of human population, and there would be maybe...a few thousand people in the united states with an IQ higher...we're talking Eiinstein range here...

I don't need a test to know I have a silly IQ. :)

It takes too long to load for me. Stupid Internet Explorer.:mad:

Considering how long it takes to load, it seems to be more of a patience test...

Although part of intelligence is the patience needed to learn things.

Internet IQ tests are very unreliable. The only one I trust was one taken several years ago, for entrance in special club. You needed to score 125 or more on any of the several tests (verbal IQ, mathematical skills etc; about five in total). I remember scoring between 119 and 123 on all of them, which makes me believe in their accuracy. Unfortunatelly, this also meant I wasn't smart enough for them. Oh well, I guess I'll keep on hanging around here, where there are no such limitations. :)

It wasn't for mensa. I don't remember exactly it's name, but it certainly wasn't Mensa. I've also had other tests, just for curiosity, and my scores on them were over 160. The tests I'm talking about were very proffesionally done, however.

I tried to make sure I answered every single question wrong. There might be a few I got right when I couldn't be bothered to work out the right answer and just guessed. Anyway
Amazing!

You scored 157 on your IQ test. The average person scores 100! Your intelligence quotient of 157 is very high compared with most people!I think that says it all really.

"Lucifer" is the Morning Star, actually - as well as the "King of Babylon".
I'm more like the "Court Jester of Babylon". So long as i can occasionally collect taxes. *nods*

Taxes are overrated when you can just take the food. Money is only good for buying food with which to feed the workers who build the things you want.

The first nine were way too easy though. I don't trust it. Anyway, proper IQ tests don't give you single results, but a whole series. My highest is 136. Average I think was somewhere around 115/120. (Don't ask my lowest, it's pretty horrible). I've had 160 on an internet one though.

I checked it out. It's a fraud.

It gives a high IQ to everybody who takes it. But here's the trick: when you post the code for your score (in LiveJournal, for instance) *YOU* see the score you thought you got. Everyone else sees that you got 85.

Yeah, was wondering when someone'd figure it out. I'd have thought the huge bunny face thing would have given away the fraud-ness of it. Still, it's just one more reason not to trust online quiz results, and a BIG reason not to brag about them. ;)

The only score isn't 85, though. It ranges from 70 to 88ish. (I've seen 70, 74, 77, and 88, anyway.)

I always get stuck on the "Which of these completes the pattern" and "Rearrange the letters [for whatever purpose]" questions, myself.
Wow, that is one of the worst excuses for an IQ test I've seen, even on the internet.

Seriously folks, believing in the results of any online IQ test is a pretty clear indication that your IQ is below 100.

Awww man, its because of my browser I got a few of those questions wrong, on a few of the questions i'd be like, "Which one dosent fit?" and it would not load the images for the question, so, I thought they were referring to the actual A, B, C, and D in and of themselves, which I answered "A" because it sounds nothing like the others, still, I got 150, which is I guess alright, considering the scores of some people.

I think some of these online tests are based mainly on how long it takes you to complete the test. Once I just answered every question randomly as quickly as possible and it gave me a score of about 170 or something like that.

My brother took it once, but it took him so long his IQ result was in the 90s.:)
