Pretty sweet! I scored a bit higher on knowledge and verbal, but my speed was a fair bit lower, you really plowed trough it. :o
That's just my 2 cents.






Oy! Give me some privacy.

IQ measures your ability to learn, in the most basic sense. While there are exceptions, those with higher IQ will understand new things easier than those with a lower number, or at least have a higher degree of comprehensibility. As such, those with a high IQ can learn anything necessary of a job more easily, as a general rule of thumb.

But in no means should it be necessary, they're probably just trying to gain an advantage any way they can.

Also, Raze, that's rather impressive.

Your General IQ is: 133
With this score you are better than 99 % of the population.

Your general IQ score is between 115 and 145. Congratulations - your intelligence level is certainly above average, in other words, you have a superior intelligence, very high against the general population. About 16% of people are expected to have this intelligence level. By the way, these two famous ladies - Hillary Clinton and Madonna (both with IQ's of 140) also belong to this range. You have more than enough qualities to go through all kinds of tasks and trials, which life presents to us every day.

And this was the hard one. nice...

I highly doubt any IQ test's usefulness, since as the OP said, you can practice for them.

I don't like IQ tests because I feel the general knowledge segments aren't an accurate measure of how well someone can learn something. In addition, they do not cover creativity and more socially oriented abilities, which are undeniably a huge part of someone's intelligence. This has always been an unfair bonus to my scores when I've taken them, as I'm very uncreative and instead excel in mathematical and analytical areas, which is a large portion of many IQ tests.

But really, I think I should reiterate that one of the most inaccurate ways, in my opinion, to determine a person's intelligence is general knowledge. Especially ******ed knowledge that doesn't actually apply to life, like the horoscope and astronomy questions on that test.

That aside, here's mine:

I gotta admit though, this is so hilariously accurate xD:

Your weakness - Practical and Technical Intelligence
Even if you have an IQ of a very superior level, it doesn't mean that you have no weaknesses. Intelligence also implies recognition of one's weaknesses, accept them and take actions to improve yourself in the right direction. Weakness should be form an obstacle to avoid, but an opportunity to think it over and make efforts to overcome it.
You had the lowest score in Practical and Technical Intelligence. Handwork is not something for you, you prefer to call the carpenter for a new shed, and when asked what you know about the carburetor, after a minute of thinking you say - should be somewhere in the car, isn't it?So what - not all of us are born handy (literally and mentally). Just read more about Practical and Technical Intelligence and use the tips of How to Improve Yourself - see below.

Those online tests just tell you what you want to hear. Seriously.

My brother tried it, and he's in the top percentile and a genius. I tried it, genius too. A friend of mien tried it. Guess what, genius.

Either this is a stupid coincidence or those sites are shams.

I AM SHYAMALAN, AND I HAVE THE POWER OF TALENTBENDING. THE POWER TO TAKE SOMEONE'S ACTING ABILITY AWAY - FOREVER!!!
