It's not an IQ test or an entrance test; it's simply a fun collection of exercises put together by Mensa (an international high IQ society).

I got 25/30. I could have got the fruit grid question, but I didn't feel like writing out the algrebra you need to do it, and I couldn't do it mentally.

Geez, I already said the results don't mean anything. It's just a bunch of puzzles and such. I don't even think it's a fair assessment since some of the questions might be more difficult for non-English speakers.

Yeah, I know.

But you are likely to score up there with Einstein if you take an Internet IQ test.

I remember a bunch of people posting results they got saying they scored 150-170. Lol.

Keep trying, you might have got one of the hard questions first (they appear to be in random order). Just keep going and don't grade it until the end.

Well of course. We all know all the geniuses hang out around GameSpot offtopic, right? :P

27. Maybe I could have gotten the stupid word unscrambling questions, but I didn't feel like it. The fruit one wasn't too hard because the first row was all apples, so 4 apples = 28, then 1 apple = 7. But that test was really, really easy.

You knew Banalities? The box and lines, and all the other logic ones are easy.

I got 24, I think. I just gave up on the word ones. parachute, grassland, consign, banalities, It didn't tell me the answer for the 4 letter word one for pass, code, etc.. pfft.

I did get 'Stronger' though.

Mostly easy. Stupid words! argh!

The banalities and parachute questions took me longer than anything else to figure out. The box and lines one I just didn't really pay enough attention on.

I didn't even really bother trying the 2 long word scrambles, and I screwed up the # of 7s between 1-100.

I almost missed the one about the number of 7s. I clicked the choice, went to the next question, and then went back when I realized that I'd forgotten one in 77, Saved myself from a really stupid error on that one.

Yeah, even if I sat there for an hour, I wouldn't get banalities. I didn't even know it was a word. :)

Same. I got parachute as soon as I looked at it though.
