If he does it wouldn't surprise me. His gameplay is impeccable, and that is afterall, what an IQ test is. A bunch of puzzle games.

It's nonsense to dismiss the IQ tests. When Davina interviewed Dr. Thomas Chamorro-Premuzic, on BB on the Couch, he said that Chanelle, Ziggy, then Sam and Amanda, had the highest IQ scores of the housemates, and all had similar scores. That was the case until the four new arrivals entered, although I don't know which of them had higher.
When Davina pointed out Chanelle's surprising score, saying she didn't use her intelligence, Dr. Chamorro-Premuzic told her that they were very long, state-of-the-art tests, and that the results never lie. Remember that he's a world expert on personality and IQ testing, so he knows what he's talking about. Channel 4, recently ran a propaganda documentary, condemning IQ testing, but it's telling that they wheeled out as supposed experts, Prof. Steve Jones and Prof. Steven Rose, neither of whom are remotely qualified to comment on IQ, and both are known for their liberal-Left poitics.
To clear up the confusion about the scales used in BB's tests, the one they use would need a score of 148 to qualify for MENSA. In the most commonly quoted scale, where 132 would qualify for MENSA, a score of about 119-120 would put you in the top 10 percent of the UK population. 67 percent are between 85-115, which is classed as the 'normal' range. An IQ of 70 is officially classed as borderline learning difficulties, although, as there are different ways of defining learning difficulties, many, such as Susan Boyle, are wrongly and unfairly labelled as having low intelligence.

If you do an IQ test you're a sucker and proves you have a low IQ to begin with, and fail to recognise how flawed the test is.

But good luck to you! ;)

what is your IQ? usually people who dont fair very well mock the test itself

Whatever you think of IQ tests the information at the top of this thread is apparently false anyway (Sunshine said she never did an IQ test for the producers), so the thread should be locked.

IQ tests are a test for all round intelligence. Some people are intellectuals, some people are good with shapes, some with words, some with numbers, some interpersonally, some for memory, some for quick thinking.

When I did one in my last year of A-levels 2 years ago I got 137... although I didn't do that great in my actual a-levels and my spelling is piss poor.

To get into Mensa you need to be in the top 2% of the population, which is roughly an IQ of 140, depending which type of IQ test you take.

Yes is should be closed. Wonder why the mods are so keen to keep it going, in particular one mod who shall remain nameless.

I'm not surprised, have you heard him arguing, he uses everything in an argument to turn the point in his favour, annoying? Yes, Smart? Most definitely!

Willz1982 26-07-2010 10:23 PM

What's with jj dressing like john James? Think about it he has same initials, and tonite they looked like twins. Same hat, same White vest, same grey joggers, an even the same beard. I think something strang is going on.

moghirl 26-07-2010 10:24 PM

I thought Corin would've been the lowest .. if her vocabulary's anything to go by.

It was hectic and yet JJ was the one who knew what to do.

I thought the same but the IQ test doesn't test emotional intelligence or emotional awareness. I think John James has bad emotional awareness. I think he is fairly emotionally intelligent too. His descriptions of some peoples personalities have been spot on before.

Don't know if I believe the OP but JJ is intelligent. He has total recall of conversations.

Anyone here in Mensa?

He needs to take a look at himself more.. than judging other people all the time. The mans a twat!
