What's you IQ?

Do the test and make a correlation with your chart.
I reccomend anyone to post their score in picture.

The test:http://www.iqtest.dk/main.swf

My result:


I have Mercury in Pisces in the 5 House.

Re: What's you IQ?

Neat test. A few of the later ones seemed inscrutable to me and I just guessed. I might have figured them out if I had more time.

Re: What's you IQ?

Haha I am laughing with the answer above^(not in a bad way)

Anyway...it depends on what IQ you are interested in.Most people believe that being intelligent(having a high IQ) has to do with being good at maths or physics,don't know where you are coming from but just in case...

Perhaps this page can offer some insight on the types of IQ that exist.

I think this is one of the best tests on Internet that measures IQ.
It's based on Raven Matrix , a good indicator of fluid intelligence since there're no cultural bias.

For someone with an I.Q. of 140+ Nevenez......you can't even put a simple sentence together quote" What's you IQ?"...ok, I get it now, merc in pisces....
What's wrong with the test?
The test you taked was a professional one?
The error about the title of the thread was because i was typing very fast.

Re: What's you IQ?

The old paradigm of IQ was busted in the '90s when author, psychologist, and science journalist Daniel Goleman wrote an excellent book on this subject called Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ (1996) Bantam Books.

Re: What's you IQ?

IQ is a matter when it comes to education. You can categorize abilities but it makes no sense to replace one for another.

Re: What's you IQ?

I got 100 something.Which means I am average but the point is...I did in 10-15 minutes I think.I didn't use all the time that was available.I did think a lot of them but some was too quick...I have no patience watsoever XD.
But I still stand by my point that there are different types.

It's a known fact that there's different kinds of intelligence.

English isn't my native language so what?
Doing a typing error has nothing to do with IQ.

I sat on my hands to keep from saying anything, but yeah...that was unnecessary.

Actually Caprising, there's a chance too that Nevenez's IQ is even higher than that, if you factor in the language gap issue...

Re: What's you IQ?

I took a lot of time going through the problems and finally got up to the last question... then my computer crashed. Classic. Anyway, I had to start over, so I tried to just hurry through and select the same answers that I decided on before. Some were really tough and took a lot of time... I wish it said which ones I got right and wrong. Well, after hurrying through I got 126, but I don't know how much my answers/results were effected by time/hurrying/frustration at computer having just crashed.

These kinds of tests are famously flawed, though, it's still fun to do them and figure out just what method of thinking is your best method of thinking. This one is kind of cool, as it deals with recognition of pattern and design.

By the way, my brother can't write worth a dime. He can't spell, he can't punctuate, he drops words and has terrible handwriting, but nevertheless he is one of the more intelligent, logical, reasonable, profound people I've known. Lapses in writing often point to a progressive mental process, sometimes very eloquent when speaking, and more focused on the meaning of the message than the craftsmanship. Some people are not word-thinkers and do not have much thought in/to a language.

P.S. I have Mercury in Sagittarius in the 4th House, semi-sextile Saturn, inconjunct Mars.

Re: What's you IQ?

It is quite interesting to check IQ level and My IQ level is 120
that is high in level. First time I check my IQ level with the help of the this site.

Re: What's you IQ?

I've already had my IQ formerly tested (before I joined Mensa) and it is 156.

I have Mercury in Pisces. I find this interesting as Mercury is supposed to be debilitated in Pisces, but it seems OK to me. Although honestly I'm not sure I even understand what debilitated looks like in Mercury.

Seems that Mercury in Pisces is undervalued.

You've got to be kidding me? I'd ask this question most definitely even if this was not a thread on IQ, but how as an intelligent person can you allow such a ridiculous indulgence? "OK, I get it now, merc in pisces..." what the????

Frank, on this site, has done some studies in to this. It's been a while since I read his threads on this so please correct me anyone who knows better, but it showed that Mercury in Pisces natives scored by far in the high-intelligence area, no?

I hope that ^^^^ was a poor attempt to mock and not a genuine belief. Ah who cares, let those who choose ridiculous beliefs, believe them...

For others, this is one of the best links I've ever found on Mercury in Pisces, it cuts the deepest assessment of the placement I've yet read, far, far above cookbook heresay.

Re: What's you IQ?

145 here, based on the old-style tests. When I first joined Mensa back in the '70s, the cut-off was 138 or above. I'm not sure what it is now. But they would definitely let me back in if I was willing to pay dues.
