It's actually much smarter than that.

The people who take it seriously try to get the highest scores, right? The test rewards them with the highest scores, and they're happy, flaunting their scores everywhere. But the test is one step ahead. It's actually been designed to be meaningless to see who has a go at it. Obviously, those who got the highest marks are the most retarded.

The others who didn't get very high marks (i.e. who didn't try too hard) are the ones that questioned its validity, the ones that are actually intelligent.

You see? Therefore, the higher your score on an IQ test, the more retarded you are.

never leave your intelligence hanging out for all to see and compare. There's always someone with a bigger intelligence, and if yours is exposed somebody will eventually kick you in it.

IQ is generally pointless and when compliant to the multiple intelligences theory, we see that its a test of three facets of intellect, leaving eight intelligences unaccounted for.

Further, intelligence like all expressions of biology is only relative to the context in which it is used. In so much, being highly intelligent in one's native language, word reasoning and mathematics, as we see in many geniuses, allows no room for things like common sense, empathy, athletic capacity, ect. Traits of intelligence (as they enable strategies, and strategies are mere directionalizations of behavior offering desired results), having a high math and word reasoning capacity does not corrilate to success or actual hollisticly accounted for intellect.

See, things dont become done, become finished, become results without action, in this, is a physical intellect, a emotional/feeling intelligence or simple good vision more important and desirable then high IQ?

I have been tested to be a 152 on an online IQ test, 130ish on this test and above average on the standard test - so what does this tell me/us? that this testing is arbitrary and erroneous as its a means to mental masturbation and offers little accuracy or validity, or, that the time and context in which tests like this are taken account more for the score then some 'collective unconscious' or perceived finite nominalization of intelligence expression (which is an action in response to a problem, ergo a process and not a categorical thing or object that is' yours').

Every circle takes a movement one square to the right. Every three movements the circles follow the pattern Invisible --> empty --> solid
