When I was a wee nipper I had a government psychologist out to see me who concluded I was carrying an IQ of 147 around!
Now, I know that can't be true (believe me...which way's North?!?...Doh!)
So what the bluddy hell has gone wrong between then and now?
Nothing. The tests are a useful approximation but nothing more than that.
Are people so insecure anyway, that they need to look at test banks for feedback on their mental abilities?
Its clear most people on the site are pretty switched on....best to just relax and be happy with the brainpower you've got.
Jean Todt, Sporting Director of Ferrari, has the ability to multiply 4 figure numbers at better speed than human+calculator. People have different skills.
Doing these tests wont improve the real mental processing you have available, and to the people who argue they will: "How can IQ be a reliable yardstick of a person's intelligence?"
They will prepare you for similar questions in future tests, thats all.
Rant over, and no offence to the original poster
