Congratulations, Gina!
Your IQ score is 138

This number is based on a scientific formula that compares how many questions you answered correctly on the Classic IQ Test relative to others.

Your Intellectual Type is Facts Curator. This means you are highly intelligent and have picked up an impressive and unique collection of facts and figures over the years. You've got a remarkable vocabulary and exceptional math skills — which puts you in the same class as brainiacs like Bill Gates. And that's just some of what we know about you from your test results.

I never took the SAT test, but they gave us the PSAT in school- I don't remember the score, but I was a "National Merit Scholar", and they tried to scam our family with the "Who's Who in American High Schools" book...My high school didn't really stress taking the SAT, and instead we took the ACT test, which I did in my junior year, in 1978. My ACT composite score was 32, and I was in the 99th percentile in all categories.

45. I only got 111, and am a Word Warrior.

I just guessed on a lot of the math questions. I didn't feel like taking the time to answer them!

Those word problems give me bad flashbacks to junior high. I've always been a dunce at math. I despised it.

[Piltdown13]

46. 144...hmmm, usually get 147-150 on this version

Looks like they need to change some of the questions...too many people taking it too many times.

[BlueJazz]

47. 138 but these tests don't really mean that much

although my ego loves it! :)

[pmbryant]

57. Have to agree that this is pretty meaningless

I got a 140.

Seems like this kind of "free" (i.e. advertising) test has an incentive to inflate grades. And how accurate can any test be that is based on 20 multiple choice questions? No matter what it is trying to measure.

I've always thought IQ tests in general were a bunch of nonsense. This is the first time I've actually tried one.

[plurality]

55. LOL, that would be classic, I can see it now...

You scored a 75... Using our patented Emode scoring you are an...easily led fool. Your personality type is easily succeptible to simplistic propaganda and skillful sophistry. Latch on to the nearest Visionary Philosopher you can.

56. No doubt

[Rabrrrrrr]

60. "Your brain, however, has an amazing and tenacious ability

to protect itself from meltdown by completely shutting out all data, no matter how true or contrary, that doesn't fit within the parameters of your reality. While in a higher being this brain functioning would be a handicap, for the easily-led lower IQ people such as yourself it is an important survival mechanism which keeps you both from going insane, and also to hold two or three or even more completely contrary thoughts as all true."

96. LOL...I can see it now...

Your personality type is "Mid-Pack Lemming". You neither lead nor follow, and you're too ignorant to get out of the way.

I was really missing your well thought posts.

Shot some pixels. Read some books. Got my wind back and now here I am again.

They apparently forgot that. :D

[southerngirlwriter]

70. 146 "Visionary Philosopher"

but I don't think this is a terribly good test.

Remember the question about "which one doesn't belong?"

It was something like:

Horse
Kangaroo
Cow
Donkey
Deer


Weeeeeeell, the kangaroo could be it, it's the only originating from Australia. Or the Donkey could be it, it's the only one that represents stupidity as a symbol in literature. Or the horse could be it, it's the only one mostly a "show animal" today. Or the deer could be it, it's the only one to star in a Disney movie (Bambi). Or the cow could be it, it's the only one with a "Mad X" scare over it.

So, depending on how deep of a thinker you are and your experiences and your perspective, it could be any one of these.

Bad test. :thumbsdown:

[onebigbadwulf]

74. The Kangaroo is a biped. The the rest quadrupeds

[youngred]

83. and the others are all mamals

[Rabrrrrrr]

89. Yeah, I was thinking more marsupial versus mammal

Or hooved versus pawed
or biped versus quadraped

but marsupial vs. mammal was my first thought.

[jus_the_facts]

92. What about the....plum grape apricot peach cherry question.......

....I arrived at grape because the others all have pits....but only a grape grows on a vine...all the others grow on trees! :crazy:

[southerngirlwriter]

94. IQ tests in general, and especially ones like that one

are just crap. You make another excellent point.

[flowomo]

99. one versus many or none

seeds?

[nuxvomica]

108. My friend and I arrived at the same answer

But through those separate, yet not unrelated, arguments.

[youngred]

119. I used the seeds vs. pits one

though I hadn't considered the tree angle

[NoPasaran]

95. I thought marsupials were mammals

Guess that's why I'm a 65

[nuxvomica]

112. Marsupials are mammals

Though I think it's controversial.

[Philosophy]

128. marsupials are mammals too

You're thinking of marsupial vs. placental

[IronLionZion]

78. A Republican friend swears that Democrats are less intelligent

LOL

we should see the results from Free Republic

[camero]

79. I'm curious about that too. n/t

[Rabrrrrrr]

80. But, consider the following:

The ones posting here are high scorers, yes, but - we are all on DU computer savvy, at least, and so probably on the higher spectrum end of dem in terms of intelligence. Not necessarily, but probably, DU represents a far more dense mingling of high IQ people than regular democrats at large. DU is the kind of place where intelligence is appreciated and celebrated, and the kind of thing that attracts, probably mostly, people who are intellectually curious and able to think and be coherent in thought.

Also, I'd imagine that a lot of poeple who have come to this thread and scored less than 120 have been ashamed to post, or perhaps wouldn't even bother to take the test.

If I were of average inteliigence, I might be hesitant to step right up and take the test and announce I got a 105 or something.

So the sampling in this thread is definitely skewed.

Though I do have an inkling of a feeling that dems tend to be of higher intelligence than republicans. I'd bet money that we are at least more intellectually curious than republicans.

[LastKnight]

82. i just like the explination that dems are smarter...

and we have to be to some degree. i mean we think for ourselves, that takes some level of intellectuial strength rather than just following like the dittoheads do. this can also be our downfall when we are such independent thinkers. i mean we started out with 10 canadates... that alone shows how diverse our ideas are. if we could just give a little here and there within our own party to accomplish some greater good which is starting to happen, but i think that our intellegence is partly responsible for our damned stupid in-fighting. just my 2 pennies.

-LK

[ProudGerman]

127. isn't there a study out there that proves Dems are smarter?

I remember reading somewhere that the more educated a person becomes, the more likely they are to skew left. Some on the right like to point to this as proof that universities brainwash their students, heh. There are exceptions of course, Ben Stein is well educated and right wing.

104. 140 but I could've done better

I drew a blank on John's favorites then the answer hit me when I got to the second page. Nonetheless, I enjoyed every minute of the four hours I spent on that test.

[TeeYiYi]

105. Anyone want to tell me the answer to this one? . . .

. . . the one about two cars on a straight road heading in opposite directions. They each drove 6 miles, then turned left and drove 8 more. How far apart did they end up? I think that was the question. Anyone care to give me the answer? I thought the answer should be 28 or 4 but neither of those were choices. So I put 14. Anyone want to tell me how I screwed that one up so bad? Or maybe I got it right. I have no idea . . . :shrug: *lol* :7

TYY

[camero]

106. You gotta do it as a triangle to get the distance

But I don't think I got it right either. I put 14. It's been too long since I did geometry.

[TeeYiYi]

107. Thanks for your help . . .

. . . I confess, I'm still lost. I thought maybe it was a trick question since you can't turn left on a straight road. So one theory I posited was one where the "left" turn actually became a 180 and they ended up passing each other. *lol* That's where I came up with 4 miles . . . which was NOT a choice. So what you're suggesting is that the distance is actually 'as the crow flies'? If this is the case, then I think there is no way that 14 could be the answer. I think the answer should have been 20 miles 'as the crow flies'. I wonder if 20 was one of the options. If I had it to do over, that is the answer I'd put. Thanks camero, for taking the time to answer my question and help me look at this in a different way. :hi:

TYY

[camero]

110. I went way off the beaten path

tried to get the area then cut it in half and then tried to figure out the perimeters. Alot of work for a wrong answer...lol :)

[TeeYiYi]

113. So, camero, do you think . . .

. . . 20 is the right answer? I confess, as an artist, I gave up on math pretty early on. I never made it through algebra, let alone geometry or trigonometry. To come up with 20 just now, I drew a '12 mile' line using quarter inches as miles. Then made left turns as exact 45 degree angles and drew two 8 mile lines going in opposite directions. Then I measured a straight line between the two final stopping points, which turned out to be 20 miles (5 inches). Does this sound accurate? Is this how you understood the question? I don't see how it could work any other way. Oh well, it doesn't matter. But if I had it to do again, I think I'd put 20 this time. :-)

TYY

[camero]

114. That's probably it.

It's been 22 years since I had to do any geometry. That's what I did but I left out the ruler. You are probably right.

[LastKnight]

115. the anwser was 20

if they both start at the same point and go in opposite direcitons for 8 miles i think was the number i got, then they both turn right and travel for 6 miles... you you draw a line connecting one of the car's starting points to its ending points... you have a triangle. use pythagoreom (sp?) theorem to solve for the missing side, you have 10, then double it, for the distance to the other car, then you have 20. simple geometry.

-LK

[camero]

116. Doh

Back to school for me. :dunce:

[LastKnight]

117. stupid thing is... i just realized...

i got it wrong because i forgot to double the 10, i only found the distance from the start point to the end point. damn my haste. lol.

118. It's been so long since I used that theorem
