There should have been a (I have never had an IQ test) option...

I have, several times (as part of a school program) but I would think that they are not neccesarily that common...

IQ Tests... lol

What a silly kind of posturing exercise that is.

It's almost embarrassing in it's inherent ineptitude.

The problem is, of course, that not only is economics bankrupt, but it has always been nothing more than politics in disguise... economics is a form of brain damage.

High IQ does not mean you have any more common sense or ability be more rational than the next person. It is better being smarter but IQ is overrated in most cases.

My dad would say "You can have all the book smarts in the world and not a lick of common sense."

I voted but this poll is pointless. Are you trying to prove that complex subjects are more interesting to intelligent peoples?

that reminds me: a Polynesian King got tired of his old throne and ordered a new one for his grass hut palace. It came Fed Ex and so he put the old one in storage up in the attic. Sure enough, he's presiding over important matters one day when the old throne crashes through the roof and kills him. Moral: those who live in grass houses, shouldn't stow thrones.

Well, let me see I have take 12 different iq tests

I saved my scores for such a moment

Highest to Lowest

178
174
167
167
165
163
163
160
160
160
156
154


As you can see it is highly dependent of the test you take, what time of the day you take, and how long in between sexual activity.

When I was highly sexually active my scores were lower.

How does the IQ score range chosen for the survey compare to percentiles?

Its more or less a bell curve with 100 in the middle. It actually has to do with standard deviations and all that statistical whatnot, but Bell with 100 in the middle's good nuff for a visual. [1 sd = 15pts; 65% of the pop should be from 85 to 115; by definition.]

The tests are great at seperating the 80's from the 120's. They're not so hot at seperating the 150's from the 170's.

I must be mentally challenged; I keep coming back to this site, plus I had to look it up to see if "mentaly challanged" was a double dip spelling error.
