The scale doesn't even go up to that level (not necessarily)!

Here's an indication of what your IQ score actually means:



Over 140 - Genius or near genius


120 - 140 - Very superior intelligence


110 - 119 - Superior intelligence/High Average


90 - 109 - Normal or average intelligence


80 - 89 - Dullness


70 - 79 - Borderline deficiency


Under 70 - Definite feeble-mindedness

High IQ & Genius IQ

Genius IQ is generally considered to begin around 140 to 145, representing ~.25% of the population (1 in 400). Here's a rough guide:

115-124 - Above average (e.g., university students)
125-134 - Gifted (e.g., post-graduate students)
135-144 - Highly gifted (e.g., intellectuals)
145-154 - Genius (e.g., professors)
155-164 - Genius (e.g., Nobel Prize winners)
165-179 - High genius
180-200 - Highest genius
<200 - "Unmeasurable genius"

A few IQ tests will vary on what they consider to be "average"/"above average"/"genius", etc, but what I have provided is a rough guideline of what your scores mean.

NB: if you really want your IQ taken, go to a specialised psychologist. The fact that you attained, say, 130 on a test, is not to suggest that you're actually a genius; it simply means that online IQ tests don't mean half a ****, and the results likely to be ****ed up (not saying that anyone here is dumb ). Go to a specialised educational psychologist or something of that sort if you really want your IQ measured accurately. And that's if you're really bold, too.

[Redway]

Of course, "high average" and "low average" can be marked at 100-110 or 90-100; this is entirely in accordance to the slight variations that people may make to possibly enhance the accuracy of IQ scores/tests.

no offence to everyone but yeah, I doubt we have like 10 geniuses on TiBB

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

i have never completed a test fully coz i get bored half way through

Yes, 'cause most of them confided in online scores.

[Beastie]

Mine is off the radar

Using BODMAS, work out the following:

1. 3 + (7-2) =

2. 17 - (14 X 3) =

3. 11 + 2 X 7) =

4. 100 - (11 x 8) X 4 =

5. 27 X 3 - 6

Solve the following equations:

1. 4x - 7 = 27

2. 3x - 27 = 45

That's secondary school maths that most people can't remember how to do.

5. 27 X 3 - 6 = 75

Solve the following equations:

1. 4x - 7 = 27 = -- ? (Don't know what that [/I] means. Oh Ffs, I was trying to work out 'I' as in italics.

2. 3x - 27 = 45 -- x=6 (Messed this one up too, read '-' as '+')

That's secondary school maths that most people can't remember how to do.

Have you got answers?

[GypsyGoth]

1. 3 + (7-2) = 8

2. 17 - (14 X 3) = -25

3. 11 + 2 X 7) = 25

4. 100 - (11 x 8) X 4 = -252

5. 27 X 3 - 6 = 45

Solve the following equations:

1. 4x - 7 = 27 x = 8.5

2. 3x - 27 = 45 x = 24

Of course. I achieved an A* at GCSE maths.

Can you post them then.

[Joelle.]

Just did a test and got 120. Probably nowhere near.

[Redway]

1. 3 + (7-2) = 3 + 5 = 8

2. 17 - (14 X 3) = 17 - 42 = - 25

3. 11 + (2 X 7) = 11 + 14 = 25

4. 100 - (11 x 8) X 4 = 100 - 88 = 12; 12 X 4 = 48

5. 27 X 3 - 6 = 54 - 6 = 75

Solve the following equations:

1. 4x - 7 = 27

Add seven to both sides, and 4x = 34.

Divide by four to get x on its own, and x = 8.5 (you can do this using an algorithm).
2. 3x - 27 = 45

Add 27 to both sides and 3x = 72.

Divide by 3 to get x on its own, and x = 24 (feel free to check this by multiplying 24 by 3 ).

Look below. And I've provided my working out, so there's no doubt that I worked them out.

I worked them out better

On number 4, wouldn't you do 88x4 before taking it away from 100?

And, on number 5, doesn't 27x3 = 81?

I'm not trying to correct you or anything, I'm just wondering where I've gone wrong.
