I did the IQ test on http://www.iqtest.dk/ and I find it a bit flawed, simply because some people are not "good" at picking up differences. Like the ones in this test.

But I think this goes to show, that people are more "gifted" in certain areas, vs others.

The test scored me at 98, but I know for sure I am a lot higher than that, I have a higher aptitude than what this gives me credit for.

Based off my own aptitude and comparing it with others who were or are similar, my IQ range is between 160-180.

Most people I know, even those that hold Ph.D's have commented on much I can understand subjects that took them years and I was able to understand it, without their education.

If I am as dumb as this thing tells me, than everyone around me must be "retarded".

You dont need scholastic education to understand something unless you need it simplified by a medium (teacher).

you should try it again, several times, and it is very, very likely you will score around the 25-75 percentile range every time, with a bit drift due to the accumulated practice.

now you are right in that g doesn't measure general aptitude at all. it is a narrow and perhaps a bit overrated set of skills: working memory, for the most part. so don't feel bad or anything: you can obviously achieve with less RAM; you just have to be smarter and more diligent that way.

Which is the scarier reality.

There is a little bit of truth in these IQ tests and you do actually have a reasonably above average IQ, 120+ meaning you have the intellectual means to be competent in any field. Yet you're not doing anything of value with this slight gift you have been given; you are solely accountable for all your academic failures, you have been given to golden ticket to relative success, yet won't cash it.

On the other hand if these IQ hold no real value, yet they seem to become a rock on which people anchor to in order to define themselves.
