I took a 2 day, nationally renowned IQ evaluation in Houston a few years ago. I ended up with a 143. I also scored a 172 out of 180 on the LSAT, which is more or less an intense IQ test, before I went to law school several years back. I'm pretty much a genius.

Not sure, I've never taken one, nor do I really care to.

I'm doing well at an excellent college, so that's enough for me.

Traditionally, you need an IQ of circa 165+ in order to fall under the genius category. You also need two more points to be allowed into atleast the danish mensa chapter.

IQ tests are crap. And online IQ tests are even worse. And the younger you are, the higher the score you will get. Something I've noticed.

And I'd also like to admit, it is pretty funny to look at all you so called geniuses, cause trying to gloat about being a genius on an internet forum makes you look more like a child. Kinda the opposite of what you say you are lol

Can no one admit that they are just average?

Also, IQ tests (and, for that matter, LSATs) aren't a very good measure of intelligence...

It was done at the Johnson O'Connor Research Center. They measure your perception of spatial relations and patterns, your capacity to learn, your ability to teach, and a few other facets of intelligence that aren't normally on standard IQ tests. They then take the percentile that each of your results were in, average them, and give you an intelligence quotient between 0 and 160. Then they do very extensive aptitude testing, which is what they are widely known for, to give you a solid idea of what your strengths and weaknesses are. But the IQ test they give prior to the aptitude testing is one of the most comprehensive you can take.

The LSAT is an extremely good indicator of intelligence. Take it, and thet get back to me.

[QUOTE="Famiking"]Yep, this is one of the harder IQ tests: http://www.highiqsociety.org/iq_tests/Jamiemydearx3

I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed. :P Still slightly above average though. ;)

Out of curiosity I took there Test For Above Average Abilities and scored a 134. It also told me that I was in the top 5% of the population. I don't really know how to get a picture of the web page like you did or else I'd have it up there. If someone wants to tell me how I'll add it for proof.

Traditionally, you need an IQ of circa 165+ in order to fall under the genius category. You also need two more points to be allowed into atleast the danish mensa chapter.

As I said previously, most legitimate IQ tests top out at 160 or 180. The one I took happened to be 160, and it was scaled by percentile. The 200 point scale is obsolete.

Again, take the LSAT, and get back to me. If you don't believe me and refuse to take it, well, I guess that your issue.

I went to graduate school also. I earned an LL.M. (Master of Laws) after I finished law school. Now I can practice law as an attorney or teach it at an institution as a professor. If you're planning to go through any sort of graduate program, you will have to prep for the GRE. That's another fun exam, though not nearly as difficult as the LSAT. Good luck.

I'd like to point out that in your attempt to arbitrarily point out a typo I made, you accidentally typed a period outside of the quotation marks that you put around the word "then." As a rule, periods always go inside of quotation marks, no matter the grammatical situation.

That, is the response I was waiting for. Read my earlier post. You fit the description perfectly....

And I also didn't say that I am a genius. I said that I am average, and I am ok with admiting it.

How could I make that mistake? Well, I usually don't make any grammatical mistakes. That is to say that when I type something, it's almost always perfect; I normally don't have to check it twice. I will grant you that I typed a "t" instead of an "n." It was a mistake.

You could say that I make so few grammatical mistakes, I'm actually more likely to miss it if I do make one. Thankfully, as was the case when I wrote for American Political Science Review or The Saint Mary's Law Journal, catching those minor mistakes is the job of the editor.

You worked for a political science journal? Then why the hell have you accused Gamespot of being "extreme left"? When evidently, that is far from the case?

But geniuses don't make mistakes. Average people do. So you have to rely on someone else to make sure your doing it properly? I have to say, I am not impressed..... Also have to ask, have you ever measured your head?

I did an IQ test 2 years ago and got 109, so its not high, though supposidly above average.

but I think IQ tests dont show real intellegence, I know people who have a higher IQ then me and yet are not as smart as me.

[QUOTE="GTA_dude"] I'm big on grammar and spelling. Seriously, how could he make that mistake and not notice?

How could I make that mistake? Well, I usually don't make any grammatical mistakes. That is to say that when I type something, it's almost always perfect; I normally don't have to check it twice. I will grant you that I typed a "t" instead of an "n." It was a mistake.

You could say that I make so few grammatical mistakes, I'm actually more likely to miss it if I do make one. Thankfully, as was the case when I wrote for American Political Science Review or The Saint Mary's Law Journal, catching those minor mistakes is the job of the editor.

You worked for a political science journal? Then why the hell have you accused Gamespot of being "extreme left"? When evidently, that is far from the case?

Gamespot is extremely far left, as is most of the political science literature out there. Most of what I wrote were moderate discussions on the politics of private property, or discussions about how the energy industry is being used as a political tool. I wrote about the constitution, its relationship to state laws, and how their interaction affects more micro-level political issues. It is possible to write moderate or neutral pieces for a poli-sci journal, but they definitely won't publish much conservative literature. Just because I'm conservative, however, doesn't mean I can't find common ground to write about.

No you're not: You keep writing "and" after commas.

Lol, you can do that....the comma is optional if there is an "and" involved

[QUOTE="GTA_dude"]

But geniuses don't make mistakes. Theokhoth

Of course they do. >_>

Then what is so great about being a genius lol, they always claim they are better then everyone else, like to talk about how they got high scores on everything, and about what they've written. They should be perfect. If they make mistakes too, then wouldn't that kinda put them with everyone else? If their with the average people then shouldn't they be average? I know they wouldn't like that, especially this Mark_the_Lie guy... And if you dont agree with what I'm saying, or you think I made some mistake in this post, then what can I say? I'm just average....

Just because I'm conservative, however, doesn't mean I can't find common ground to write about.

I'd have to differ on the point of Gamespot being extremely far left, there's a number of conservatives, neo-conservatives, right wing libertarians, anarcho-capitalists and even one paleo-conservative that I can think of. Though mainly I don't tend to class American liberalism to be a far "left" political alignment, more so centre rather than shaving to the left. Extremely left personally tends to bring up thoughts about anarcho-syndicalism, libertarian socialism, socialism, Marxist-Leninist communism, Marxism and whatnot. I guess you'll find a few internet communists on Gamespot (or anywhere else on the internet for that matter) and I'm not going to deny there's no one who holds a radical left viewpoint on Gamespot, there's a communist union floating around, I think. I just think that to say that the majority of Gamespot's member base is extremely far left is a stretch. If anything like electorate in the US, there's probably more moderates (between this whole Liberal vs Conservative thing) than we give notice to at present. I apologise if I came off a little aggressive. Otherwise, your published worked sounds quite interesting, woulld you happen to have a link to any?

No, you get yours straight. Haven't you ever heard of the serial comma?

I'd like to point out that you have little humility.

T_P_O

I get the hint that he is trying to prove he is intelligent because in that other thread I was sarcastic at him for claiming he is the smartest in all OT.
