I dont believe intelligence can be accurately quantified but it's always fun to find out.

i did some studies on IQ tests, and yes, online ones are very inaccurate, but so are many of them...There are so many things that factor into what you can score on your test. The same person can take one test and score say a 112, then take another, and score a 125, which is a big difference. The wiki article on them has some good info in it if anyone is up for the read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_quotient
In the end, your measured IQ is really only a score of how well you can take IQ tests, and doesn't necessarily have any bearing on how well you can solve problems, or really even how truly 'intelligent' you are, its just the best way we have at this time to put a quantified value on a qualitative concept.

I know someone who took four real IQ tests, and scored exactly the same on all of them, which is how it's designed to work.

were all the tests from the same company? Same testing facility? Same methodology? If so, then its very likely this could happen...

No, they were all seperately ran, but that's how legit IQ tests are supposed to work. They test your IQ, why would your IQ change (in the period of a year anyway). All these shotty 100 question internet tests are not properly designed, the real ones take many hours to successfully do.

Each test is different, especially in the case of different testing institutions. If he scored the same hes either bull-shitting you, or it was a coincidence.

I think 139 is for a stanford-binet test. The CFIT is 148

I'd like to take a mensa IQ test just to see what I get.
Too bad they cost money.

I took a real IQ test when I was about 16 and it was a 142, and I got to join MENSA. But yeah, I would assume the average IQ around here is about average.

I took an online test that scored me at 145, which while flattering isn't accurate. Probably more like 120's. But being smart has nothing to do with how successful you are.
