how high is your IQ?

[QUOTE="Mark_the_Lie"]

[QUOTE="T_P_O"] 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?T_P_O

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.

Sorry, I don't have links. I will not send you my originals, because I don't send my copyrighted work to anyone unless it's for academic or business purposes, and you won't be able to access anything of mine from APSA without a subscription. Also, I'm not inclined to let anybody here know my full name or location, which is on the front page of everything I've written.

I took four IQ tests when i was young,on two i scored in top 2% of population on one i scored on par with a chimp remaining one told me average .Tests are either crap or i am able to turn half of my brain off at will :shock:

It used to be 122, but after I got my second concussion it dropped to 116.

One of these times I want to take the Mensa test, and when they ask me to join Mensa I'll decline. Then if anyone ever brags to me about how they're a member of Mensa, I can say, "they wanted me to join too, but I was smart enough not to give them $400."

According to online testing, anywhere from between 50 to 190.

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.

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 The 200 point scale is obsolete.

Oh gosh I honestly have no idea as it's been around the territory of 33 years or so since I last took one of those tests.

This thread is gonna be flooded with people saying 130-150 It always happens :? Juggernaut140

Seriusly, the tests are stupid.
I had to put together freaking wooden pieces and point out whats wrong betwen to pictures... I mean you have to be ...less developed... to get below 120 in a test like that lol :D

IQ tests are BS.

i know and have known quite a few people who are members of a mensa subdivision, and i have never heard anyone of them brag about it. On the contrary, most of them seem modest to the point of shy whenever the conversation falls on the topic of intelligence and IQ scores. But maybe it´s just different over here, i dunno´.

IQ tests are BS.

correction: internet IQ tests are somewhat fruitless in a psychometric sense. But they make up for it in theego-superiority department to many, so i guess the value of the tests breaks even in some obscure way. :3

by the direction this thread has taken, I would say it is apparent that it is quite different over here rawsavon

Agree with this,only ppl that brag about intelligence are parents talking of their children

(ooooh look at him,so smart my son is ) :lol:

Lots of high IQs in here. Apparently having a high IQ isn't enough to see a thread that was bumped almost 250 days after it originally died :P
