Jeez, I'm a dummy, I only scored a 142 when I took one. Haven't had all that bad of a life though. Except having to go back and change or to of all the time. I had to plea bargain to graduate from high school.

That test was within 3 points of the last one I took, which was about 5 years ago! Tell CJ that he can add 50 points if he never consults a psychiatrist, which makes him MENSA material!

Penni; TAht test was fun, you can also use it to see how f aas t you
are with a mouse. If you can check all the answers as "TRUE"
in one minute it will give you an IQ of 120, which will make any
one smarter than 93% of the population. < if they are fast with
a mouse > even if it takes 3 minutes you will get 119.
But don't try it checking them all False as you will
score much lower.
--------------
I have reservations about the intelligence of the people who
composed the test and did not balance the amount of true Vs
false, so as to eliminate a built in bias from any random guessing.
Hence I hereby declare the test as not valid to finding an IQ.
It's a farce. They just want to sell me a $9.95 profile, and they
figure THe best way to do that is tell me how smart I am.

( I hate to say taht too as I scored really high ) but that's
what tipped me off that something was wrong, as I already
knew I was not supposed to get over 160.
