    The son of my partner at work is in 7th grade and score 27 on the ACT which he was allowed to take for being smart and stuff. And stuff. Scored 30 in math. I'm impressed by the young man.

    What does it matter what your IQ is? Do people just want to show off or something? "Oh look at me, my IQ is higher then yours!" It doesn't really matter how high your IQ is, it matters what you do with your knowledge.
    You can know all the math, all the science but still be a 40 year old living at home with your mom. Or you could be me a B average student who plans on going to college even though i'm probably going to have a heck of a time there trying to pass my classes.

    I would have to seriously disagree with that and I have acquired a cohort of loyal haters who agree with me.

    In a way I think it is good. You have to learn at one point in life that you cannot please everybody and it is even better when you don't for your own sake. After all, it is more difficult to say no than yes.

    These important lessons in life are not reflected in any IQ test of course. I think that is a serious problem with them.

    But it is as was said by the inventor of the IQ test (Alfred Binet):

    "This scale properly speaking does not permit the measure of the intelligence, because intellectual qualities are not superposable, and therefore cannot be measured as linear surfaces are measured, but are on the contrary, a classification, a hierarchy among diverse intelligences; and for the necessities of practice this classification is equivalent to a measure." [1]

    Courtesy of wikipedia (don't you just love it how you can find anything there that your own memory supposed to have but has temporarily forgotten?). He used it to spot students who needed extra help at school, not to measure intelligence.

    Yes, that's true. Like what bono said "You have to let people down." Because you can't worry about pleasing everybody, because then whats the point of having your own views. They're like wasted.

    This is what wikipedia says about online IQ tests:
    That kind of agrees with what Dreamwalker said. He gave random answers to the IQ test and got a score of 100 which is supposed to be the average score for the population. That shouldn't be possible.

    Nonsense, Spurious. Don't you know that the majority of people on the internet are geniuses?

    Unlike most of the people online, I'm going to tell the truth about the IQ results I got along with my psychological. My IQ was 111 (I'm 16 your old) and the percentage was that I'm in only the top 30% of the world population. Yah, it's low, but I don't care anymore. I stopped caring about everything a few months ago.

    111 is above average. So you don't need extra help at school according to the founder of the IQ test. congrats.

    45? you belong to 0.0002 - 0.04% of the population. You are special!
