Title: What is your IQ?
Post by: Petzbreeder on January 01, 2016, 00:05
I did an IQ test on a website a couple of days ago and shared my results on my Facebook page. It said that my IQ is 134. I'm in the top 1% in quick IQ, apparently!

My brother did the same IQ test and shared his results on his Facebook page, and he only got 124.

I have a higher IQ than my brother, and he is older than me! Is that even possible?

I don't think age has anything to do with IQ, my brother's IQ being lower than mine is proof of that!

it gave me 134 as well but imo it isnt a massively accurate iq seeing as it only really takes into account your reasoning skills and none of your word skills or number skills or just like skills i guess


there are supposedly 9 different types of intelligence and this brushed the surface of about one of them

Please know that IQ is the ability to learn, not how smart you are. It's your potential, your ceiling.

I actually got mine tested back in the day, it was in the 140-150 range I think.

According to the test, my IQ is 126, geometry is a struggle. I'll get it professionally tested again to see what it really is.

If you're younger you're more likely to do better in an IQ test because it's more so due to how receptive your brain is and when you're younger your reactions are generally faster. Wear and tear and all that.

Haha, it looks like you just got that. Mine was 132 and I'm supposedly in the top 2%.

This is a *lot* like the 11+ test I had to take for secondary school. Geometry's non-verbal reasoning, everything else is verbal reasoning. Pretty fun tbh (:

Well done! You're approaching gifted.

Saying You're "approaching gifted" seems pretty good to me.

I just did this one and got 134

I'm pretty confident I got all the answers right, so this IQ test is balls.

Most IQ tests online are to be honest.

Yeah I have issues with ACTUAL IQ tests because I think intelligence is reeeeeally difficult to measure, especially since people have all sorts of different strengths.

That being said, I took this one and got 124. The number sequences didn't make any sense to me so I probably took a hit there.

Proper IQ tests are legit in the sense that they're a great way to measure brain receptiveness but they're in no way, shape or form a full intelligence test (or at least shouldn't be seen as such). You could possibly make an argument that having a higher receptiveness means you'll understand things a lot quicker and would therefore be better placed to develop your intelligence and knowledge over time but there is literally so much more to the brain and intelligence as a concept.

Like, knowing which shape fits into which other one isn't going to help you be better at say emotional intelligence is it? It's that kind of thing that gets missed and it's only say academic intelligence a lot of the time which is looked at as a source of being smart or whatever. So much more to it.

there are supposedly like 9 spheres of iq measuring intraspective intelligence, inter(suffix) intelligence, intellince related to nature, numerical, linguistic and like 2 or 3 others that i cant remember but yeah there's a lot more to it than 'if x equals y rotate the shape 34 degrees clockwise and tell us what shape it is'
