I got 126.
But you know that the only thing an IQ measures is your ability to solve silly tests, right? What the fuck is wrong with you, man, I bet you boast about your IQ. What moron invented these tests anyway, for what reason? So stupid people could feel better, and have something to talk about besides weather ("hurrr, wats ur iq i got 140")? Fuck this shit.

And you're just saying that because your IQ fails and you're an idiot.
Which isn't to say that anyone trusting the results of an online IQ test isn't an idiot, of course.

OH DAMN.
YOU HAVE OUT-TRICKED ME, I DIDN'T THINK ABOUT THIS; I HAD NO IDEA THAT SOMEONE MIGHT THINK THAT I BASH THE IQ BECAUSE HE/SHE THINKS THAT I AM STUPID.
SHIT. SHOULD HAVE POSTED SOMETHING LIKE "In before \"You hate it because you're an idiot.\"".
SHIT.

What? 115-129 is considered 'bright', with 130+ being gifted. Perhaps you weren't aware of that fact, or maybe you are trolling.
ITT we argue about arbitrary test results based on arbitrary, tiny subsets of human cognition. Stephen Hawking said it best (though I can't believe it took someone of his stature to finally admit it), "Anyone who cares about IQ is stupid".
115-130's have fun arguing, us 180's will be writing stories, programming, playing an instrument, doing math, or something intellectual like that.

I got 100 for this test once, so I agree with Hawking.

I got 110 but I wrote a Brainfuck compiler so I figure that bumps me up to about 130-140 range.

Can someone who got a high score what is going on in some of the last questions? I was doing pretty well until the last 6 or 7 when they became abstract as a Nomad.

I found it odd that 38, which was quite obvious to me, was sandwiched between 37 and 39 which weren't obvious at all.

Q32 read left to right. The line segment touching the line segment which pivots 90 degrees in the first "movement" is the one which rotates in the second "movement", giving the final column. Take the last row for example. The line on the bottom right rotates giving the X in the middle column. Now, the line directly adjacent to the now rotated first line segment, which will be the upper left line in middle column, is the one which needs to rotate to give the final column. So the answer is E
Q34 I think is arithmetic. Shaded circles inside the outer circle are positive integers. Circles outside are negative integers. The answer then is just the outer circle by itself (2 outside combined with 2 inside on the last row yield 0)
Q38 I think is F, if you take the middle arrow as an operator for the first column. The diagonal arrow corresponds to "stretch and rotate 45 degrees", though I'm not sure how the middle row works.
too lazy to post the rest. I still can't figure out 39 though, holy crap

I got 150 IQ when I was younger, but I'm currently taking retard math in high school. Doctors think I have a form of dyscalculia, which is like dyslexia but with numbers and maths.
For example, if I need to work out the sales tax for someone, I need someone to tell me precisely what to punch in the calculator - otherwise I'll simply forget what numbers I need to hit or I'll get confused.
Good thing conjuring computer spirits isn't related to math

yeah, i was like that too.
but then i went to the doctor and he gave me some lovely little white pills; i now spend countless hours studying.
changed my life completely.
you should go see a psychiatrist, he'll probably diagnose you with ADHD or something.

WTF?
137 here.
Even /b/ got higher IQs on that test. /b/ average is around 140.
Are we allowed to use a pencil and paper for this test? Most of the problems are the sort of thing you solve just by looking at them, but a few of the later ones (number 39 in particular) seem to demand some kind of directed inquiry.

Maybe so, but at least one person on /b/ scored 145 legitimately. He proved it by providing thorough and clear explanations for all of the hardest problems on the test.

I spent about 15 minutes on it, got bored, left the rest blank, and got 130.

Another thing you need to understand is that you shouldn't feel bad if you only get 110 on the test.
Many people lead successful lives with an IQ of 110, policemen, store clerks, garbage men, etc

IQ tests measure how good you are at taking IQ tests.

The thing about IQ tests is that it measures how well you're able to reason about things, a skill which is only needed in a few jobs. For example, process line working, fast food operator, checkout person, store clerk attendant, shoe shiner, coal mine worker, etc are all very good professions which do not require a high IQ

Tune in next week for our latest version of the IQ test, where you are given two Jackson Pollock paintings, and you have to guess what he paints next! Finally, you will be able to know your true intelligence quotient.
