Any legit ways? I'm a big, big dumbo. I've never been smart and I'd just like to feel smart once in my life.

I got 124 IQ on this test https://mensa.dk/iqtest/ but at least I'm not THAT dumb to realize only ways to test iq is professionally.

Help a brother out.

You can raise your IQ by studying IQ tests with their solutions. Then when you get the gist of how IQ tests work, you can go take a test without solutions and it will say you got a lot smarter.

I mean sure, you can do that.

I regret making this thread about IQ. I mean, just becoming smart. I want to be smart.

Yeah, that's my biggest problem. I don't know where to find the resources from which I can learn the X category.

All I can think of is just googling and getting up the basic websites like Wiki, YouTube, etc.

Either smart in business and entrepreneurship, or another field that I could excel at. For example like finance?

I guess just become smart in something to the point where I can make decent money.

Honestly bro, just something that once I fully understand it and have more knowledge off can be rewarded with a decent steady income.

If your intention is to become knowledge in a specific field, expand your knowledge pertaining to that field. There are plenty of adequate resources online.

How do I retain the information I absorb?

Maybe I should first off start with improving my memory. It's really bad.

Try dual n-back training to improve your working memory.

Thank you very much. I will use it daily.

Honestly this board seems pretty chill compared to others. Legit intellectuals talking and helping me out. Feels nice.

>>9854952

Would I need a degree in order to earn decent bank from CS? I can't imagine freelancers doing so swell, but maybe. Build up your rep over time.

I wouldn't act impressed. All we do is argue about IQ and call each other racial slurs.

First impression is my thread, and it's gone well. Can't complain yet.
