Usually what happens is that they report your iq but in reverse because they want the dumb people to think they're smart

>are those free IQ tests accurate
No.

What they do is this, they have a bunch of questions and a max score, if you get 100% you get like 130 IQ or something if you get like 90% then they give you like 125 etc. etc.

it's just lies.

Conversely there are also "free" IQ tests online which artificially deflate your score and try to sell you the breakdown for fifty bucks. It's a scam, don't fall for it bros.

IQ is pseudoscience. Taleb refuted IQ a year ago and people still have dick measuring contests over IQ.

Dear MENSA.

According to my imaginary "moraly normal parrents" it's easier to teach somebody how to make pancakes, by giving him recipe.

Testing infinite times if he can make a pancakes, if he doesn't even know what pancake is obviously doesn't help.

No. Go to a testing site and answer the questions at random as quickly as possible. It will give you a high score because even though you got most of them wrong, the ones you got right, you got right incredibly quickly and speed factors into the IQ calculation.

Depends on the test.
Mensa . dk test is accurate, but it is a test only for spatial intelligence.
