I always thought that I.Q tests are partial to the academically educated because they neglect to consider things like social skills and adaptability, the test should be both physical and intellectual. Brainiacs might be socially impared for instance, aka they lack peopleskills which is a form of intelligence (empathy). I might just be making excuses but I think it's more complex than a simple grammar or mathtest
The Rorschach Test is more interesting IMO
I won't post a link because I already got spooked by one site that after three questions showed a pic of Michael Jackson accompanied by a loud scream...
Damn internet.. always gets me with the suckerpunches
yes if they added social skills to the test anyone who talks about how high their IQ is would lose a good 50 points for bragging. Just not that intelligent to toot your own horn. funny.
IQ tests can be fun, here's an old thread, with a link to a test site to begin with. http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=18141&page=1&highlight=IQ
And lots of people's scores listed.
I can't understand why anyone wouldn't like to know their own IQ, unless its not that high.
I took an I.Q.test when I was in 4th grade I believe. Got to skip school for it too, but I was sick anyway. I remember the receptionist at the office builiding I took it in, some major thing, psychologist was there, parents...big ordeal. Anyway, the receptionist was excited because apparently it was pretty high, I just remember that she was damn hot. She asked me a bunch of questions, I naturally impressed her. What I lack in brains (not much, ha), I more than make up for with charm.
bye you guys!
oh, and doc? peace out idiots?? That seems a little uncalled for. I notice you did not post your results....hmmm
but you made a point. When we take these tests we might not be at our full capacity so to speak which also affects the results (what else is going on)...
I mean you think differently in midtraffic and in say a sensory deprivation chamber. Intelligence is only applied to the need of understanding
you were distracted by...
well I leave it to your imagination
good looks makes you a dummy
..which is part of the fun btw.. who knows you might get some points for stumbling over your own eyes
It's part of the process
now that's how I.Q works for ya. It helps you build a shelter in the jungle but honestly..
do you really care about "how smart" you are..
compared to what? How smart I am is irrelevant to someone else
this is what being a philosophy major is all about
endless debates over things so abstract or metaphysical that any hypothetical answer that truely does not change the facts of life... Workout for the brain basically... like playing chess
...
well I used to be... now I'm studying at the fishery institute (I Hate! that word... institute)
