that will give you the mass fraction and tell you if it is possible

I have taken the long forms of both stanford binet and the winchester test.

The hardest questions on both tests are similart to: Giving someone a series of operations to do to a number in their head. Such as "what is 20% of 4 squared plus 50?) they might ask you such things as "what do these two (seemingly unrelated) items have in common" or assembling puzzles while being timed.

The answer to OPs question is: on the most used IQ tests in the world the way you would get 160 is adding and subtracting more numbers in your head with your working memory vs everyone else" and other similar things. If you go through all the questions on the test, if you are smart like over 115 IQ you will see they are not hard. They are not things like asking you to invent something or prove a theorem or justify a philosophical position or anything like that. My concept of what a real genius would be is understanding subjects so complex and abstract that I personally can not imagine them even if they are explained to me.

Once you get real familiar with these tests you will see they do not test for genius. They test for you being able to do mundane tasks faster than everyone else.

>Why do you put any stock on their claims about having high IQ's? Every retard thinks he's smart, and every retard has done some online mensa test, and now they go around telling stories about how they've had shrinks, psychologists, psychometricians, or whatever administer a real test on them.
when i was in grade school i was known as very smart and enjoyed being smart. then in my late teens I got hooked on drugs and did an ever loving fuckton of drugs for years and almost died a bunch of times then was a drunk for a few years drinking 2L of vodka a day. When I got sober I really did go hire a shrink to give me the long binet test to see how bad I had fucked myself.

Cost nearly a thousand dollars and took all day but well worth it to me. I was only 2 points off where I thought I had been as a kid

ask me anything
