Okay, so, I finally bit the bullet and took this test. I hadn't for a long time because I was deathly terrified that I was actually a low-iq brainlet autist who just had preternatural savant abilities. Is this test bullshit or should I hire a psychologist to give me a WAIS-IV?

Yeah, some are decent. Cambridge brain science used to have a good free one. Had 3 different categories, all of which I scored in the top 1% on. So I figured it was probably not very useful. Had a few friends try it out, and they scored about where I has estimated their IQs to be. The first time I had a midwit friend try it, I was actually very surprised to see that she scored around the 45th to 55th percentile. After that I tried it again but high as frick, and scored only in the 75th percentile (rather than 99th) on the most heavily memory loaded metric.

It's not like official IQ tests are perfect either, variation of say 10 points for the same individual is common. It's a ballpark, and anything beyond 130 is pretty much meaningless outside of very taxing fields.

How much you achieved is relative to you life situation and how you were raised. Some people had great parents, and they were able to graduate college at 18, then proceed to have successful career at 21. Others might have been less fortunate, despite being more genetically gifted.
IQ tells you your max potential while ignoring environment circumstances. People brushing off IQ are often pampered urbanite midwits that had rich and caring parents. They don't know how good they had it, and they think that they own their success thanks to purely their own will, and not environmental circumstances.

Hi, I am the anon who was creating that personal study of visual memory and verbal memory of anons and other individuals to assess valid scores through percentiles. Unfortunately, that study is not super helpful due to the way I controlled the study, i.e no control group, n verification of legitimate IQ scores outside of those I know personally, and no conclusive data on how the percentiles of these websites work, or how they arrived to their conclusions at calculating sd. With around a hundred participants, I still have some conclusive data that can help you out! Internet IQ tests are inconclusive and are only meant to serve egotistical function - yet we can remove a large portion of cheating, false positives, and snark by only allowing real data tests - not static tests like most online internet tests are. The suggestion is as follows:

>Using humanbenchmark.com complete all the following games as many times as you like, with as much time as you want. As you continue to progress you will see noticeable improvement, but eventually, you will plateau. Plateau scores of the following indicate 145IQ approximation, and these scores are tenable due to the people who helped and participated with me by cross referencing WAISIV, WISCIII, SB variations, and Cattell - All of which provided proof of actual assessment. Numbers in (brackets) indicate ideal recommended scores to assume 145+, minimum scores are before the (brackets), also acceptable.

Sequence Memory - 40 (50)
Visual Memory - 30 (35)
Chimp Test - 30 (35)
Aim Trainer n/a (300)
Typing (monkeytype test) - 140wpm (150wpm)
Verbal Memory - 200 (400)
Number Memory - 20 (25)
Reaction Time - 150 (130)

--

Scoring these results indicates high ability in the relevant subset. Score all of them or near all of them and it is likely you would score 145IQ 15sd weighted on any of the above officially administered tests. Hope this helps someone.

Hi 40 takes approximately three hours average, it also just depends on the person and what strategies they use. 40 is a good score, indicative of maxed subset for sure, 30 and 35 are fine though!

I would argue as single IQ test doesn't accurately determine how capable you are
But beyond a certain point
Does taking more IQ tests make you smarter or not?
If the answer is no and people significantly improve
Is the test good instrument to measure and compare intelligence?
If taking more tests and you get smarter, test scores go up
Is the test good instrument to measure and compare intelligence?

In reality I would say you can generally can compare intelligence + knowledge, these are inseparable in my opinion, but you can't really tell who is "better" with a difference of like 10 points. In school or work you are not only compared by one indicator, for example your average score of a course is often divided into classes, like out of 20, 14 to 17 is 5 points, 17 to 20 is 6 points and they insert in in a formula along with other parameters.

And in the end if you are like a 110 IQ you can still have more success than someone who is 160IQ as they are mostly non social creatures and have strange desires
Thinking big, working and consistency are the determining factors (and looks of course)

En realidad onions trilingüe. Mi lengua materna es el español, el Inglés lo aprendí shitposteando y el Japonés lo aprendí gracias al anime y a mi ex-novia japonesa.

Actually, I'm trilingual. Spanish is my mother tongue, I learnt English by shitposting and I learnt Japanese by watching anime and fighting with my Japanese ex.

実はね、トライリンガルですよ。母語はスペイン語で、ネットで英語を習って、日本語はアニメと前カノのおかげで習ったんです。

Also, I'm a software dev. Honestly, I may have a gift for languages, but I always thought my spatial-mathematical IQ was higher than my verbal. Until I noticed that I can pick up languages fast and without any discernible accent.

You learn more English by reading in English, but also by talking and using the language every day. Context is king. Think about all the pajeets out there who know tons of words but they talk unnaturally. That's what happens when you learn (or memorize) words out of context. Learn and acquire difficult words in context by talking and arguing with people. Preferably bright people.

I don't think I'm particularly smart. My brain is actually just a regular normie brain sped up to x10 or so. I can do shit like calculus fast, but more complex math just bores me to death (I find it frustrating and thus not fun). On the other hand I can make anybody laugh in any of the languages I know, just from sheer speed of thought and language processing. In practice I just use this skill for slacking in my job, I get shit done 3 times as fast as everybody else so I can dawdle more.

Hey, IQlets, instead of doing Internet FSIQ tests of dubious quality, go do the WAIS-IV under clinical conditions.
If you score under 150 on the WAIS-IV (I'm being quite generous -- it tests up to 160), you can do your part for /sci/ by taking your /pol/nigger or woketard ass off the board.

Definitely. Contrary to what 99% of normies and /sci/ believe, your intelligence can go up (or down) over the course of your life. It just takes considerably longer to train or decay. I think at around 12 years old I was at around 120-130 general IQ, and my spatial IQ > verbal IQ. Nowadays it's around 135-145, and my verbal has improved drastically. I did piano between ages 9-18, studied Japanese since age 18, and studied Calculus, Algebra and Physics during college. Using your brain makes you smarter (as common sense would dictate).

>> No.14809184

It's not that your IQ "changed". Iq is an assessment of your ability to learn, pattern recognition, comparative to the general population.

The older you are the larger your knowledge-base should outpace the average, therefore they have a larger test sample of expected knowledge base over time to sample against in determining your IQ.

That is: until your brain starts to degenerate.

Timing is important. In actual IQ tests, you are tested for it. You can't just leisurely "puzzle" over the assignments like it's some sudoku. Some exercises like "write down all permutations of this graph" are even completely about speed, as even a dog will eventually have all permutations noted down.
I guess you took more than 1 hour for that test, which is excessive. With that time, anyone can get 130+ IQ.

>> No.14818785

I did this is roughly 8 minutes. I got a 114 but honestly all these sections have no relation to actual intelligence. Try discussing a complex concept to someone and watch them checkout. They can rotate shapes well but they cannot keep up with various layers of abstraction. I've done really well in my life and have rubbed shoulders with many who are much more intelligent then myself yet I have gone much further, faster. Are my methodologies to said progress unrelated to intelligence? I think not. I see SWE's constantly think they're geniuses however, I have managed to out perform them and as a consequence, out earn via productivity and social game. They are the true midwits on this board coping with their IQ scores. Its funny how this is all relevant and subjective. Everyone looks at me for the answers and I'm the dumb one. Your IQ tests are bullshit at best and only translate to parameterized ideals of intellect. This board will cope by pointing out my grammar or use of vocabulary, that's the cope. HAHAHAHAHAHH

I took a crack at it. I would say 123 is a slightly deflated score for me, if I compare this to other online IQ tests I've taken. My scores are usually in the upper 120s. I'm not saying this test is totally bunk. Not by any means. It's probably a pretty good estimate in most cases. But it is intentionally designed to be very short, and I didn't feel the areas tested were broad enough. Call that cope if you want.

In my opinion, the best online IQ test is the American Mensa official practice test. It's 80 timed questions. (Note, you have to pay one dollar or something to take it, I forget.) Of all the tests I've taken, I felt it was the broadest, and most fairly weighted between the different skills. It gave me an estimate of 128, and barring a proper test from a psychologist, I guess I consider that to be my IQ for all intents and purposes. (Not that that's all that amazing, but I still think 123 here is a little deflated and inaccurate. Just my opinion.)

>> No.14818914

>>14818905
For reference, I got a raw score of 73/100 on the Miller Analogies Test, which is a *super* high score, and puts me around the 99th percentile of verbal IQ. Mensa stopped accepting the Miller Analogies Test for entrance a few years ago, but a score of 73/100 would have admitted me comfortably (cut off was raw score 64/100 when they accepted it).

So I find it weird that I scored 124 verbal on this test. And again, I'm not saying the test is bunk. Just that I think it's not long enough or broad enough.

Well, I'm OP so obviously it had massive effects on my WMI. There was no way I could have scored a 142 on memory without having trained. After training for so long I feel like my perceptions are clearer and more defined, like I'm looking at reality through an ultra hd lens or something. I also have permanent PNSE or ASMR feelings in my scalp. Also its waaaaaay easier to focus in general for hours at a time and my digit span went up from 9-10 to 12-13 (without mnemonics). I'm sure that my method of loci training, exercise regiment, and meditation/yoga regiment contributed to all of the above sensations as well.
