The IQ yardstick is pretty basic, 100 is standard. But anyone´s IQ can go up and down wildly over a few days of testing. It´s not a permanent, fail proof number.

Mensa was started because it was thought that an organization of the top 2% IQ of the population would make perfect leaders of the world. Didn´t work out that way, so it looks like having a high IQ, all things considered, means fuck all.

Mines in the 140´s. But IQ is just an indicator, not an absolute. 111 is good, if you use it well.

The highest I ever scored, when I was workinghard and really busy, at 28, it was 143.

The last time I took it, it was 124. I´m 35, unemployed at the moment, and the mind goes soft.

Anyone claiming 189 or some shit is a liar, unless they´re willing to re-derive general relativity right here on GLP for me tonight.

I scored around 145 a few years ago, probably could have done a lot better had it not been for the math type questions.
Oh I can do the math, it´s more a matter of useing it or loseing it and calculators make it so easy I lost the math.
I foret the actual score but I do know it was one point above average.

I guess I should expect such comments from a Neanderthal 129. My GIQ is 165 plus, the 189 is for verbal inference and associative reasoning.

IQ 111 is within normal limits; between 85 to 115 is considered normal; 115-129 bright normal; 130+ genious.

189 is off the charts! Very few people, if any, have anything higher than about 165.

111, on the other hand, is slightly above average. 130 and above is considered "exceptional".

You have to remember that there have been over a hundred areas of intelligence identified, and the best IQ tests only measure about 11 of them.

That being said, the theoretical average is 100 with the real life average being anything between 90 and 110. Then there´s the standard error of measurement which would mean that your "true" IQ would vary by 3 to 6 points (usually) depending on the test you took. So with an IQ of 111 your "true" IQ could be as low as 105 or as high as 117. IQ´s (scores, that is) can also be affected by whatever physical or emotional state you happen to be in at the time you take the test.

So the bottom line is that your IQ is, as an earlier posted said, just an indicator. It´s what you do with it that counts, but 111 is certainly a respectable IQ (in case you have to tell your mother-in-law what you scored).

Heh.....I so enjoy these ´pissing contests´ everyone seems to get into everytime this subject is brought up, somehow propping-up themselves or the other as ´superior´.

It´s NOT so much what you are endowed with as what you do with that which you possess.

I´ve had friends that have possessed much higher I.Q.´s than my own, in truth, I wouldn´t trade places with them for all the cash in the world for some of the issues they must deal with.

The person claiming 189 is mistaken. The smartest person in the world is like at 181, Marilyn vos Savant.

I´m in the 140s. Kicked out of two high schools for not giving a shit, simple vocational school degree, and I don´t work. I stay home and take care of my kids.

The biggest issue by far is other people thinking we simply must have issues. It helps with their unfounded jealousy.

Sentence correction. " I scored around 145 a few years ago. (period) I probaly could have done a lot better had it not been for the math type questions."

"Oh, (comma) I can do the math its more a matter of using it or losing it, .......
Spell correction. Its "using", "losing", not useing , loseing.

Not "foret", but "forget"
