Anyway! I think it is fun, try it out. They email you the results almost instantly, you don't have to buy anything. When you finish and they are asking for all your CC info to buy your results, just close the window.

And my parents refused to tell me what my old IQ scores were when I was younger.... all they would tell me was that I was well above normal and that I shouldn't worry.

That's because we're all lying to make ourselves look smarter.

It does score high, but fairly accurate. My school IQ tests show 149.

I think it varies. I scored a 172 on it, myself, but I'm pretty sure that's... uh, never going to happen.

I got the same thing Emmy 
Statistically the following statements are true about IQ scores obtained by taking this test:
An IQ of 100 is higher than 50% of all persons taking this test.
An IQ of 110 is higher than 75% of all persons taking this test.
An IQ of 120 is higher than 93% of all persons taking this test.
An IQ of 130 is higher than 98% of all persons taking this test.
That has less resemblance to our answers than a mouse has to a steam boat.
/edit
Dammit. I hate typos.

No, this wouldn't be smart.
Take a look at those statistics. For everyone here to have IQ's like that test gives, well... it'd be pretty damn near impossible. An IQ of 130 alone is top 2 percent of the population... you people are scoring, in some cases, WAY over that.
The test is bullshit.
I reguard this test in the same way I would the "Gender Test" over at Spark.Com.
And for those that will say i'm just saying that because i scored low. I got a 159.
*shrugs* but then i'm 49% bitch, 29% pure, and 59% gay

Well.. lets get started then.
For one, most of us are/were Everquest players. That lowers it to... what, one million, at the most? Now, let's assume that because many here are scoring in the 135-165 range, that it's actually... .20 percent of that 1 million Everquest players (averaged). Now, completely IGNORING the fact that about 500,000 of those Everquest players are complete morons, let's do the math.
Unless I did my math wrong (completely possible--feel free to call me out on it), that's a mere 2000 people. It should probably be lower.
Now, how many of those 2000 people do you think would end up on this one message board? And out of those 2000, how many do think would be here now, posting in this thread? Don't get me wrong, though--I KNOW most everyone here is extremely smart.
But we're not Einsteins.
(IQ tests are bullshit anyway.)
quote:I got tested around 135 back in HS. This test is more math-based, and doesn't account for age.
your IQ Test score was: 163
The standard IQ test I took in HS has sections for each of the following:
>> Simple math (elementary level)
>> Higher math (high school level)
>> Reading comprehension
>> Speed reading (read a word with a blank in it, fill in the blank with the appropriate two-letter combo)
>> Spacial Relations
>> Vocabulary
>> Grammar
I scored well on both math sections, reading comprehension, and spacial relations. My grammar and vocabulary scores were average. I bombed the speed-reading (which gave 1 minutes for 50 questions, or something like that).
