Four of us scored 149  . 
edit: Well, make that three of us. We have some good brains here nonetheless.

115, Above Average.... barely, lol. But I had some difficulties with some of the questions, as I was getting stuck on technicalities. For instance, the question about the word mineral... okay, so it might seem a bit obvious to some, that it works with the word parliament... but it also works with the word "minerals", which is I guess the same word, but there is still an S, and it would still be considered another word, technically just because of that I would think...
I get mixed up by a lot of things like that in these types of tests -_-

I have to pay for it to get my results? no way. the demographics can make them money. Oh I see, they email it.
I got 120 which is close. My professional test score was 125 or so, with a spread of 119 to 129.

Yes.
I got 129 instead of 149; 149 is the "sample". Silly me. |

| About 135 if I recall correctly. Of course that was an online test, I've never taken a professional test. However I'd say I'd probably score well over a hundred since every single standardized test I've ever taken (ACT, Ohio Graduation Test, ASVAP) places me somewhere in the top 20%. |

They sent my results to my bulk/junk mail folder. Make sure you check that. |

The only "official" one I've taken stated "high", and this was administered in grade 2 when I was having problems with reading/writing. Anything above average could probably be considered "high"; it's probably accurate in my case.
It'd be interesting to see what the majority of those with AS score, either below average, average or above average.
It should fall within the average, i.e., no different to the standard population if AS are HFA are the same thing, and autism is only a template to apply to anyone, no matter their IQ. |

| Not to sound like an advert but I took a non "full of true and false questions non-sense" test at tickle.com, they also give you preliminar results without email (IIRC) and if your IQ is high they give you the complete analysis through email for free I got 133 there. |

How long does it take to e-mail you? It shouldn't take longer than a few minutes should it? All well, I don't trust True and False tests to be very accurate. Not like any of them are really, but True/False ones I'm especially sceptical about.
I took several other ones online and usually get between 130-145. I take them for fun, but it's hard to take any of them very seriously when they want money for a personal report about your intelligence after youv'e taken it. My "real" IQ is probably closer to the normal range, but even those real tests don't even begin to scratch the surface either.
My favorite ones are the visual puzzles, I score highest on those. I was disappointed this one had none. Just boring words. Even the number problems were more like word problems. Kind of a bias toward the verbally quick? Only one problem for pattern analysis, another type I do well on. This test wasn't my favorite, and I doubt the most accurate as it claims to be. |

Indeed. It will be biased to those with problems in verbal communication, making words into "pictures" so to speak, and how quickly one can process words.
My speed in putting words to thoughts would have pushed my overall IQ way down; it took me far longer than the 13 or so minutes. |
