WrongPlanet:
52% above 130 including all votes, 61% above 130 excluding the "other" and "don't know" votes.

General US population:
5% above 125.

These results are wild.

I now wonder how much of the difference is a function of being on an internet forum, how much of it is from people taking tests that give higher scores and how much is a function of being Aspergian.

the above post , Seems Poignant Somehow .Even somehow important ....
And odd.y enough , doesnt exactly say anything good about the overall general NT populations smarts. ??. imho

I got good results on both the military service test and the autism screening tests, but it didn't give me a straight score.

But I took the Mensa test and got a 129. Unfortunately, I was drunk at the time of the test because I had been partying all night and had registered at night, then they called me at 7:00 and wanted me to come and take the test. Maybe I would have gotten better if I had been sober?

I was offered the chance to take the test again for free, sober, but I declined. I no longer want to know my IQ. And the pressure you put on me to perform well is one of the reasons why I am on sick leave.

If it wasn't for the bullying related trauma , and the need to be at least competent at something, I'd be a lot less obsessed about IQ.

Apparently between 90 and 99.

Arithmetic: 132
Spatial Ski l: 128
Logical: 128
Spelling: 141
Short Term Memory: 120
Rote Utilization: 141
Algebraic: 139
General Knowledge: 131
Visual Apprehension: 133
Geometric: 129
Vocabulary: 122
Intuition: 125
Computational Speed: 75
Total: 126

This was an online test taken at IQTest.Com on 25 August, 2023. When I was 64.
The Computational Speed I found the most interesting. I'm sort of proud of it two years later.

Would probably equal a score of 142-144 ( on a proctored test) based on those who have both a high range and an official score at the world genius directory . Not my strongest area of ability.

I don't know and I don't want to know. Those puzzles intimidate me the moment I look at them. But in an informal setting people tell me I'm intelligent, mostly in the area of creativity or coming at an issue from new angles. But I'm not very mathsy.

one iq test showed up this week, took it; it was supposed to show up in email, never did,
but the graph pointed between 130-135
and in highest percentile speed it kept saying
funny that,

and it was french, i'm worse in french iq tests
guess i bettered that

I wonder, I'm just extremely good with things that interest me. Maybe have more IQ (500 IQ) for my interests than for other things.

You know everyone who answers is going to say they have a genius-level IQ because that's how the Internet works, right?

I had devoted quite some time and attention towards this problem.

After several months of pondering, preceded by years of indecision and aimless wandering, I realized that I am, in fact, a stupid person. For the last half a year, I have pegged my IQ at around 87. Plus minus 5. An utterly serious post, this is, though I can understand why some might reckon otherwise. No matter; the following are my sincere thoughts on this personal matter.

It is difficult for me to read instructions, such as how to assemble a piece of furniture, or the installation of electronics, when they are in paper form. Digital ones are still difficult, but manageable.

I cannot remember things which I have done merely seconds or minutes ago. My mind's capacity for fetching short-term memories seem to be nonexistent. The high-level caches of my CPU seem to be compromised; they can scarcely hold anything due to their leakage.

I don't know what it is like to be able to read a segment of text and understand it on the first or second pass, whether said text is in the form of a textbook, a novel, a short story, a video transcript, a song, or merely scribbles on yellow paper. It is as if I am gazing at them through an impenetrable block of plexiglass.

Things elude me, gliding past me as if a full-grown dolphin. No matter how many times I have attempted, I am unable to grab a hold of it, my hands sliding past its smooth, slick flank, before the dolphin performs a powerful stroke with its muscular tail fin, me reeling in its turbulent wake and gasping for air.

Strange sounds come to me from afar. I cannot concentrate totally, no matter which test I am taking or which paragraph I am reading, my mind frozen into a temporary state of indecision.

It is..... I .....don't know anything anymore..... I can no longer interpret objects and entities in my life in a proper manner...... my mind loves wandering to other planes of existence and I just.... just..... can't anymore....
