Not surprised at Stephanie being first seeing as she studies.. maths/economics?
Glad Dennis is high up :D
Lisa's higher than Mario =O
&just LOL @ Alexandra.

If anyone knows Jennifer/Stuart's for whatever reason, lemme know and I'll slot it in :]

[stonedape]

Kathreya's score could be attributed to English being a second language...everything else is pretty obvious, especially sylvia and alexandra.

Go Darnell!

[bigbr0ther]

Sorry, I don't believe it. Lol.

Why would Luke, who is very witty and studies politics, have a lower score than Rex, a chef, Dennis, a dancer, and Darnell, a song-writer? I mean, those are all respectable jobs but they require more skill/talent/creativity than they do intelligence.

I think these were just made up based on who a certain person liked or didn't like.

Which one? I thought I'd seen all of them.

[Deirdre]

if you have an IQ of below 70, you're considered a ******...:devil:

[bigbr0ther]

Oh my God, my Luke To Win banner has vanished! :*(

No you're not.

You're considered to be educable mentally retarded. Which doesn't mean '******' which suggests neurological issues - but simply educationally disadvantaged. And 70 is a high cut off point too. "Mentally retarded" is about as low as 20-30.

They probably do those jobs because they enjoy them, someone's job doesn't always reflect their intelligence.

those seem far too low, i totally agree.

[Matt10k]

Bottom four look very suss. 64 is an incredibly low score. Anything below 95 is below average, below 80 is pretty bad actually- 64 is just ridiculous, you can tell Alex is more intelligent than that.

Either they didn't take it seriously when they did it or it's wasn't an accurate test. I suspect Alex, Sylvia, Mo etc... didn't concentrate when they did it or didn't take it seriously.

You're young (I think?... well I assume you're not 21+). Also, was yours a proper IQ test? As in conducted in test conditions by a MENSA specialist etc?

[*mazedsalv**]

I have an IQ of 102 and Im 15. I concider myself "dumb" because I am not that intelligent so i think thats a bit high for me.

Steph's one is great. She had intelligence and good looks. Dale's is unusually high.

Anyone know Jen's or Stu's?

I'm 16.
&Nope, it was one of those [probablydodgy] internet ones XD

If they're accurate, it's certainly a kick in the teeth for all those people who just described her as a 'dumb blonde'!

[Bells]

As soon as Steph said what she studied, I figured she'd be an intelligent girl.

I'm not really surprised about the rest of them (particularly Alex's) - bar perhaps Luke - but even then it's not a big shock.

Nah, she's intelligent by the very fact she does Maths and Economics at A Level. She has 2/3... which is good for a BB HM.

(Lacking personality, imo).

[Moses455]

Stephanie is far from intelligent. Interesting how low all the IQ scores are, this means that they have a preponderence for unintelligent housemates. There is no way that Stephanie is so intelligent, she is almost eligible for mensa. And Alexandra's score is so low, she is near retarded. These results are a clear nonsense.

[Matt10k]

A lot of people did describe Steph as a dumb blonde though...

Well, yes... there is obvious IQ fallacy in it but not to the extent where it gets it completely wrong.

You could raise your IQ by beginning to spell properly. (consider). Dale's IQ is not 'unusually high', but below average, as would be expected for an ignorant buffon as him.

I think 64 for alex is completely wrong to be honest. She probably didn't take it seriously.

Im sorry, it was just a typing error.

No, I do agree with the numbers being wrong - but I think the ranking order is probably right/not far off.

Don't agree with the order either :bigsmile:

I wouldn't put Alex at the bottom. I know people hated her but at times she did seem quite intelligent. Also, Mo might be dull but I don't think he should be as far down as that. How can becs be more intelligent?! Mario also seems stupid but is higher up than a lot of them :rolleyes:

I think this list is just utter bull! :bigsmile:

[KingRock]

Not only does that list rank the IQ's from highest to lowest but it also virtually ranks them from darkest to lightest.

[bigbr0ther]

64 wouldn't be extremely stupid but it would be pretty close. Alexandra was obviously much, much higher. Something doesn't add up here.

[~Beachbum~]

They are way too low i'm sorry - not real.

[Foebane100]

IQ tests are not a good guide they have been shown to be affected by culture, sometimes age and experience and can be studied for.

That said I'm not shocked to see the majority of the HMs are a bit thick since I thought the average IQ was meant to be 100, which mines was above btw:cheer2:

[Shaun]

Online 'IQ Tests' often give you way too high results; I think I got 140 once which would make me a member of Mensa...but then some have given me like 110.

But well done Stephanie! Disproves the dumb-blonde stereotype :tongue:

True. They do that so you buy their crappy 'analysis reports'- because people think 'oo, i'm smart, I'll buy that'! If they got an average score, they probably wouldn't bother.

I got 147 online once. Obviously, it was accurate that particular time :joker:

No.......A ****** is a person that beleives IQ tests are reliable measures of intelligence....:bigsmile:

[GiRTh]

I saw this last night.

I saw shocked to see Stephanie at the top. What does she study?

I'm stunned that Alex is at the bottom. I dont think anyone could have predicted that.

You might try taking a look at your own spelling. (Buffoon)

[Bright-Eyes]

All I can say is it must be one dumb ass house if I would be ranked fourth.

[Feral]

There are various forms of intelligence and we are all pre-disposed to any one of them. Mensa tests are based on a combination of any of those and whilst you may be academically good you may still not now your botty from your elbow!

Seen many a Physicist whom could not follow a microwave meal instruction but explain the Chaos theory in depth!!!!
