re: I.Q.

In my opinion, IQ's tell you nothing. Like age, it is nothing but a number.
#5

re: I.Q.

*shrug* I never had a proper IQ test result. Or at least, not one that was revealed to me.
#6

re: I.Q.

I've always heard that the measurements are not accurate above about 145; it seems that they testing procedures change all the time anyway, so perhaps it is different.........

re: I.Q.

Last time I had an IQ test, it was 167.
I have my books and my poetry to protect me...

re: I.Q.

lol, what I tests are you people taking? Average IQ is around 100 and slightly above, 165 and above is considered genius. I believe that that was Sir Isaac Newton's IQ. I believe the highest IQ is Mozart's...somewhere in the 190s.

re: I.Q.

How on earth could Mozart and Newton's IQs be measured? The test didn't even exist in their lifetimes.

I hereby make The Mismeasure of Man required reading for everyone in this thread.

re: I.Q.

Then I'm really surprised you started this thread.

re: I.Q.

I will agree with BroadwayGirl that the IQs everyone is listing seem too high to be true. That was actually my first thought when I saw this thread, but I didn't want to be the first to say anything about it.
Although, I think the highest IQ ever recorded was Stephen Hawkings, but I could be mistaken.

I also agree that IQs, like age, are just numbers and mean nothing about the person.

As long as we're in a corrective mood, it's capitalization that's missing from her posts, not punctuation. And there's a distinction to be made between "can't" and "won't." Anyway, talent, intelligence, or whatever mean nothing unless you do something with them.

re: I.Q.

Absolutely right. My IQ is 145 and I flunked out of college.

re: I.Q.

Other factors can also effect it... I think I'm the only person in the history of my elementary school to be in the gifted program, and special ed at the same time.
I don't know my IQ, and I'm kind of surprised that other people know it off the top of their heads. I've been tested twice (6th grade and 9th grade) but I don't remember it.

re: I.Q.

Abba, I wasn't allowed to know my test scores until I graduated from high school and was allowed to see my school records.

re: I.Q.

I graduated, but I never got the results... I don't really care to know, because it wouldn't make a difference to me.

re: I.Q.

No, at that point it doesn't. I believe had I known it much earlier, I would have known I had potential and worked harder to make the most of it.

Intelligence Interval/Cognitive Designation/(Common Possessors)

85 - 114 Average (Pupils at junior high school)
115 - 124 Above average (Pupils at senior high school)
125 - 134 Gifted (University graduates)
135 - 144 Highly gifted (Intellectuals)
145 - 154 Genius (Professors)
155 - 164 Genius (Nobel Prize Winners)
165 - 179 High genius
180 - 200 Highest genius
>200 "Unmeasurable" genius

Only approximately 1% of the people in the world have an IQ of 135 or over.

If I remember correctly, an IQ of 150 can get you into Mensa (as it puts you above the 98th percentile that is necessary for membership)

But there are a large number of tests with different scales. The result on one test of 132 can be the same as a score 148 on another test. Therefore, it's difficult to compare.

IQs CAN go over 200 (scores of 210 and 220 have been reported), but once they get that high, the numbers don't mean much. They're just estimations.

I have a feeling that some of the IQs posted were scored in online IQ tests, as those are always exaggerated scores.

My IQ was tested when I was being tested for ADHD, but I was under 18 and my parents wouldn't tell me the results of that.

I starred in a short film called Magnetic Personality. Check it out!

I'm happy knowing that I worked hard durring high school and did the best I could. I got good grades. I don't need a number to validate my efforts.

re: I.Q.

mines around 156ish. However my best friend is amazin'. She was in care (like a foster home) and they noticed how clever she was and that she was reading everything in sight so they asked her if she would like to do an iq test for fun. So she did the MENSA i.q test and got 171... she was 12. She was skipped a year at high school and still came out with the best grades! To look at her though you'd never guess it! She's a beer guzzling party animal... went to 4 lessons at A Level English and aced the exam... god i hate her!

re: I.Q.

Okay, either half of you are BSing or you had your IQ measured as a minor. Or, like FloweryFriend mentioned, you took one of those online tests.

I have a high enough IQ to join Mensa, but I think Mensa and IQ tests (which measure general ability and potential, not actual intelligence) are a load of crap, so no thanks.

It's just a number; don't place too much value on it. re: I.Q.

re: I.Q.

that's what my friend said! She joined Mensa for a while... now runs from them! She was more proud of the fact we had a wail of a time during our exams and we got good grades... live life!
