Has anyone takin an IQ Test? How did you do? Did you study? What was your score?
Favorite Answer
I’ve done one in my mother language and got 128, in English I got 122. It’s not like very brilliant, but from 120-130, it would tell you’re pretty smart. From my own experiences, people who have 130-145 are usually very good students and from first conversations you know they have high IQ.
First of all, understand that IQ isn’t everything. You can have a 180 IQ and do nothing with your life, while you can have around a 110 IQ and become the most powerful man on the planet.
Another thing to consider is in most circles, the average IQ is not really 100, like most people think. All mentally retarded people are included in that average, and 100 is pretty low. So when someone has like 120 or so that’s really not that high. Mine is not really as high as it sounds. I would say the IQ of an average doctor, for example, is somewhere around 140. Take care.
*UPDATE*
If 100 is average/normal, then why is it that everyone in here is 120 or higher? Are people that much smarter on Yahoo Answers? Please. 100 is not normal; it is an average that has all mentally handicapped people included. 120 is about average/normal in most circles.
The IQ tests that are online are not valid or reliable. They are a fad.
True IQ tests are commonly used to determine eligibility for special education. They can also be used to determine eligibility for government benefits (e.g. social security supplements for a person with mental retardation).
An average score on an IQ test is 90-110. The mean of an IQ test is 100, which just means that when they normed the test (tested a bunch of people across the country to determine it’s validity and reliability) the most commonly obtained raw score was converted to a standard score of 100.
I got a 121, 124, and a 120
I understand that many I.Q. tests are not necessarily accurate.
I did not study for mine- I just took an on-line test, and scored 127.
But keep in mind that there are many different kinds of intelligence: verbal, emotional, mathematical, linguistic, artistic, intuitive, analytical, etc.
I took 3 and scored at 4 std. dev’s above 100.
But i got marriage problems, so god does have a sense of humor.
