What is Your IQ?

It would be impossible to give anyone an IQ test...simply because it would be relative. In order to give a proper IQ test, you would have to gather the world's entire knowledge and then test based upon that. But even if you could gather the world's knowledge, there would be thousands of variables involved...such as time...would someone have a higher IQ then someone else based upon how quick they answered a question? What about people that test better in "live" situations rather then "standardized" testing? Would people that are able to remember better have a better chance at the IQ test? OR would you based it off of rational thought?
Again...any test you take is relative and involves a ton of variables, that's why standardized testing is such a fail...because you can't set a "standard" or a "mold" for every single person to fit into.

A high IQ alone isn't going to make you successful. Education is needed to make the most out of it. I've read a story about a man from India who has an IQ of 142. But he was poor and never attended a school. Hence he couldn't write or read a word and worked as a farmer on the field. Can't remember how they figured out his IQ.
But look, this man is actually a genius, but it hasn't helped him at all in his life. Someone with an average IQ who attended school has a better life then him.
My IQ is 129. I did a Mensa test when I was 20. It's an ok result, but I really don't care much about it.

I was told mine was 142 when I went thru some testing in the Air Force. It was a battery of tests to enter a Pararescue squad. I funked out on the running end though.
All it really means is I am good at trivia and puzzles, still cant figure out CSS.
Now if I could improve my unlaziness quotient, and lower my distraction quotient I would be good.

I was dyslexic, I had no understanding of schoolwork whatsoever. I certainly would have failed IQ tests. And it was one of the reasons I left school when I was 15 years old. And if I - if I'm not interested in something, I don't grasp it. - Richard Branson

Oh yes, if you live in tough and evil world.... you didn't need high IQ at all.... if you can manage your life, your IQ is OK....
all you need is how to apply some knowledge you know and be cunning..... plus IQ and EQ balance..... Good luck.... IQ test is rubbish, they will scam you with high fees. If you still want to test your IQ simply google IQ test, and whatever.... all results are different and we can't test something we never know .... Being genius mensa can't verify you will success , emotional balance. someone's knowledge is different...... Please forgive me if my comment is not suitable....
I have some ADHD due to massive right brain potential.... high potential and hyper-ability can be destructive or imbalance... be moderate in life....
Cheers..........

I doubt that
I took three IQ tests the other night online. The one that seemed the most worthwhile involved pictures only and was 60 questions. It's at http://www.iqtest-center.com. At first it started out really easy but got pretty difficult toward the end. I ended up higher than I expected myself to be.
IQtest.com sucks -- it's all true or false which doesn't seem like it could be very accurate with a 50/50 chance of being right if you guessed. It's also clearly an affiliate site, but they do send you your score for free.
I just took that test and scored 100 lol, to me it doesn't matter I go to university, do forex and binary trading and make nice paper so to me IQ does not mean shit. That test is just some piss take images does not mean anything apart from spotting some pattern or odd one out.

IQ is primarily speed of thought and pattern recognition. Most professionals agree its a one dimensional approach to measuring intelligence. The only way to have your IQ properly determined is paying a buttload to have it done, or just forty bucks to try to test into mensa. Mensa uses two variations of the IQ test, the standard and their own version.
But either way IQ doesn't mean too much. Probably more of a measure of your ability to efficiently learn new things
Ive never taken an IQ test but its probably like 125. Although my ego wants to say 140, thats probably more realistic

It depends on the test ... i scored 133 on the Culture Fair test (accepted into mensa) ... but only 130 on the Cattel III B. Typically, the Cattel III B scores higher than the Culture Fair ... if it'd have gotten the same score on the Cattel III B, i'd be on just over 148.
Clearly, 148 sounds more impressive than 133. But in reality they're exactly the same. However, in order to piss people off, i tell them 148 because it's not actually lying.
For those interested ... i didn't join Mensa, i still have the membership code on my letter though. Why pay 50 quid a year for a lapel pin and a magazine? If the societies were remotely interesting i might have ... tudor history, horticulture and stamp collecting societies aren't my idea of a good time!
