I got a 135, whatever that means. It says I'm a "Facts Curator". How high does it go anyway? I've never taken a real IQ test before. Um. I don't really think it's a good way to measure intelligence. It just means that you're good at taking tests. There are many other kinds of intelligences... music, for instance. Maybe a person is horrible at an IQ test, but is intelligent because of how musically creative they are. In fact, Howard Gardner came up with the "Multiple Intelligences Theory" and he says there are seven, of which they only test four here. And there really are many more I think. So it is fun to do, just for fun, but it definitely isn't a way to compare intelligence levels with anyone else(unlike post counts).

I got 131 and it said that I was a processor or something like that.......but it said that I was best at math, which is very true. The highest I heard was 280 (Steven Hawkins), but remember from the Simpsons, most of the people in the MENSA group had scores ranging from 160-200. So I guess it isn't that bad. But I also remember Seinfeld where Elaine took the IQ test for George and got an 85 the first TIMe, and then got a 160 the second TIMe. Ahhhhhhh....what great shows......

127 and an Insightful Linguist
Insightful Linguist.
The first thing we can tell you about that is you have the natural fluency of a writer and the visual and spatial strengths of an artist. Those skills contribute to your creative and expressive mind. But that's just scratching the surface. |

hehe.....I just checked my email, and here's what it said about my IQ......
You are a Precision Processor!
74% of Precision Processors say their body's silhouette most resembles a sleek jaguar instead of a squishy slug.
What the hell does that mean?

i got a 129... this question really pissed me off....
Two cars start off at the same point on a straight highway facing opposite directions. Each car drives for 6 miles, takes a left turn, and drives for 8 miles. How far apart are the two cars?
Each car drives for 6 miles - their 12 miles apart, both drove 6 miles
takes a left turn, and drives for 8 miles - that would be 16 miles there right... so wouldnt it be 28 total miles... but that wasnt an option.... anyone.

Nope. It's looking for the shortest path. If you draw a line from one endpoint to the other, you will end up with two triangles. This question involves the equation a^2 + b^2 = c^2. That is, the sum of the squares of the sides equals the square of the hypotenuse. 6 squared is 36, plus 8 squared, which is 64, equals 100. Take the square root of that, 10, and multiply that by two, and you get 20. That's the answer.

No.....you're taking the wrong approach. First, you should draw out what each car does independently. Let's just say that one car travels 6 miles to the right, and then turns left (up) and travels eight miles: cooridinates(6,8). Now.....the other car travels left 6 miles and then down 8: coordinates(-6,-8). The distance between them would be a straight line that goes from (-6,-8) to (6,8). This line passes through the origin. Now, the easiest way to solve, is to see on car's movements as a triangle. The 6 is the adjacent and the 8 is the opposite. Now you use the pythagorean theorem....a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are 6 and 8. C (the hypotenuse) comes out to be 10. And since the other car did the same thing in the other direction, it is also 10.....therefore making the answer 20.
P.S. this would be much easier to explain if I could draw on this message board.

I dunno, I just thought since they were going in a straight line, going left would mean going into a U turn, so I put the answer as 2, but most likely I'm completely wrong (shut up, I'm only 15).

How about http://www.emode.com/tests/brain/
Or maybe not. I have a feeling most of us are probably right-brained. I already knew I was, but I think it's kind of cool how they arrive at the answer given the nature of the questions.

you are Left-brained
Most left-brained people like you feel at ease in situations requiring verbal ability, attention to detail, and linear, analytical ability. Whether you know it or not, you are a much stronger written communicator than many, able to get your ideas across better than others.
It's also likely that you are methodical and efficient at many things that you do. You could also be good at math, particularly algebra, which is based on very strict rules that make sense to your logical mind.

Ah, even if you are mostly left-brained, you still have some right-brained qualities... understanding/creating music, or any kind of art, is a right-brained characteristic... I tend to think of myself as leaning towards right mostly, but I've definitely got some left to me.... now how about this test... http://www.emode.com/tests/rockstar/

Hey! I'm rightbrained.
And being left brained might fit better with some aspects of music. Once you get into it music, becomes extremely mathmatical.

I got 133, but the cool part is: I'm a WORD WARRIOR. I think we already knew that.
What answer did anybody else get for 64 16 4 1 ...? I would have chosen 1/4, but it wasn't an option. So what was the right answer? I don't want to pay 14.95 just to find out.

23. Which number should come next? 64, 16, 4, 1, ¼?
1/16
1/12
1/8
1/2
1
For that one the answer is 1/16.

But you seemed to have figured that out... if it's the fraction that got ya, you simply multiply the denominators. 1/2 of 1 is 1/2, so look at it like 1/1 x 1/2 = 1/2. Same thing. 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/16.

Hey Jamie M, that's one of those questions that's really an opinion question, and depending how you look at it, there could be more than one answer. Which goes right back to what I was saying about being a good test taker... you gotta know what they want. I don't know if I got that one right, but I put coconut because it has a shell.

I couldn't figure out what Silky was referring to until I went back up the thread, so I thought I'd add a quote.
I picked grapes since coconuts, bananas, apples, and pears all grow on trees. Didn't even think to attack it from the shape angle!

I didn't intend my observation to sound mean; I was just trying to make a point similar to DirtySloth's test taking skills comment: I think a *REAL* IQ evaluation wouldn't test math/reading skills. Otherwise somebody who has been living under a rock and hasn't gone to school (like "Nell" - remember that movie) could never be tested.

Congratulations, Fluffy!
Your IQ score is 135
This number is the result of a formula based on how many questions you answered correctly on Emode's Ultimate IQ test.
The even better news is that at Emode, we've taken your IQ test one step further. During the test, you answered four different types of questions — mathematical, visual-spatial, linguistic and logical. We were able to analyze how you did on each set of those questions, which allows us to shed light on the way your brain uniquely functions.
At the same time, we compared your answers with others who have taken the test, and according to the sorts of questions you got correct, we can tell your Intellectual Type is a Word Warrior.
The first thing we can tell you about that is you are equipped with a verbal arsenal that enables you to understand complex issues and communicate on a particularly high level. But that's just scratching the surface.
Peace & Keep the Faith

Fluffy, you are Balanced-brained
That means you are able to draw on the strengths of both the right and left hemispheres of your brain, depending upon a given situation.
When you need to explain a complicated process to someone, or plan a detailed vacation, the left hemisphere of your brain, which is responsible for your ability to solve problems logically, might kick in. But if you were critiquing an art opening or coming up with an original way to file papers, the right side of your brain, which is responsible for noticing subtle details in things, might take over.
While many people have clearly dominant left- or right-brained tendencies, you are able to draw on skills from both hemispheres of your brain. This rare combination makes you a very creative and flexible thinker.
The down side to being balanced-brained is that you may sometimes feel paralyzed by indecision when the two hemispheres of your brain are competing to solve a problem in their own unique ways.

Yeah baby, the rock star part of you is all Beck. Women are enthralled by your seductive energy, a perfect mix of intrigue and poetry. You and Beck have got it all together because you're unafraid to say exactly what's on your mind, and let everyone in on your quirky point of view.

You and Beck have got it all together because you're unafraid to say exactly what's on your mind, and let everyone in on your quirky point of view. Intellectual and sexy, you continually dodge conventional stereotypes with your eclectic personal style. But when you really break it down, it's just your great sense of humor and easygoing talent that makes the crowds go wild. Throw a fiesta, and inspire your inner Beck.

Fluffy, your TV family is the Bradys!
Here's the story, of a TV family, that was really very much like yours. That's right — you're The Bradys. Unconventional, blended, and hip in a very square way, Mike, Carol, Greg, Marcia, Peter, Jan, Bobby, Cindy, and even Alice are your family's TV soulmates.

Unconventional, blended, and hip in a very square way, Mike, Carol, Greg, Marcia, Peter, Jan, Bobby, Cindy, and even Alice are your family's TV soulmates. We're guessing you, too, have (or had) family meetings to settle even the most trivial matters — or maybe you had a card house-building contest to decide if you were going to get a sewing machine or a boat. Either way, just like the Brady Bunch, your family has always managed to stick together through thick and thin, and we're willing to bet that nary a one of you is a quitter. So what are you waiting for? Go plan a family trip to Hawaii or the Grand Canyon right now! Just be sure to keep your hands off your siblings — we don't care how groovy-looking they are.

It looks like everone who took the test ranges from 121-135. Pretty strange. Maybe TR's music only attracts people within this IQ range, which is why there are so few people here.

the answer they are looking for is grapes. The other items grow on trees. If you were a real braniac you could have answered bananas and still been right...if you were basing the answer on the hardness of the seeds....goofy test anyway...but kinda fun.

I'm 135 Precision proccesser
My rock star is Chris Issac (Who the hell is he?)
My family is the Jetsons
And I didn't understand the One where the guy likes 400 not 300 and 100 not 99 and 2500 not 2400 what number does he like?
900 1000 1100 1200
The only thing I could even think of guessing was 1100 and the thought process is a little tricky to explain. Usually you don't have to go that deep to figure them out. |

I think the numbers he liked were 100, 400, and 2500...these are all perfect squares...
10x10=100
20x20=400
50x50=2500
So the answer is 900 because
30x30=900
That one was pretty tuff.... |
