This one shall distinguish among those with 140+ IQs.
152, per the California Test of Mental Maturity administered when I tested for Mensa (1980).
99th %ile on the ASVAB when I enlisted in the Navy (1981).
I tested 158 once back in high school. I am relatively sure that these tests are meaningless. I am a smart guy, but I work with quite a few people that are smarter than me. I have also known many people that have (allegedly) tested very high who I am not impressed with in real life.
I don’t know what my IQ is… but I don’t feel any dumber than most of the people around me, so I figure somewhere around 100.
But that’s smart enough to predict there are going to be many posts here from people who are severely misinformed, delusional, or just POFOS (plain old full o’shit).
Couldn’t vote in your poll because there isn’t an option for my IQ of 578.
Over 140, but not as high as 150. My parents decided to have me tested after I scored so well on the Iowa Basic Skills and California Achievement tests.
I had to go with 330-339 because there was nothing higher. Really, this is the Dope, shouldn’t you have started at 1000? This scale wouldn’t even work for dick size.
It’s things like things I don’t understand. Why can’t people just either give the actual answer, or refrain from answering if they haven’t been tested?
If your IQ was high enough to participate in this thread, you would have understood the multiple allegories, mathematical innuendos, unresolved paradoxes, and onomatopoeia in Tripolar’s post. You failed that portion of the test. I personally haven’t laughed so hard since Steven Hawking’s last specious argument on the true implications of singularities in space-time.
Well look at the scale. What’s the point of that? Only the first 3 entries could be based on valid results.
ETA: Yeah, and those word thingies Shagnasty did.
His answer is just as likely to be reliable and meaningful as any other self-reported score in this thread, so why complain?
That part I agree with. However even without a scale that is mostly ridiculous, things like what you said come up every time this subject is raised.
I voted 330-339 because I assume that is the highest score ever. Every time I have taken one, I got bill later from the psychologist because they said ‘You broke the test’. Go Shagnasty, shake it, bump it, jump around, jump up and get down!!!
Turns out that I just really like to steal those cool colored blocks they make you play with so I could build things with them and blow them up with firecrackers when I got back home.
Don’t know and don’t care. At this stage of my life it’s really irrelevant. :rolleyes:
You should have selected both 280-289 AND 290-299. I’m surprised that this wasn’t obvious to someone with an IQ above 500!?
You don’t understand? Lotta good that 140 IQ does for you. 
It certainly didn’t remind me to check my sentence. 
(Things like that, not things like things of course)
I suppose it’s the compulsion to lie that I don’t get. Things like IQ or, as mentioned earlier in the thread, penis size just are what they are. Either be honest or don’t get involved in the conversation.
No worries. Everyone’s IQ on this board is high enough to know what you meant.
Since the numbers are obviously meaningless anyway, I picked 270, just to even things out a bit.
My IQ is 1100100. Unfortunately, that’s in base 2.
