    i m stoopit


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 109 ✭✭ronaldoshaky


    around 130 i think. i did a few online ones, and i scored different a few times.

    but does IQ really matter? I think common sense is probably more important.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,456 ✭✭✭✭Mr Benevolent


    135-160, depending on which test I do and what mood I'm in.

    If it was a test taken on the internet it doesn't count.

    If you had an IQ of 180, I'd expect you to know how to do a speedtest.;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,560 ✭✭✭DublinWriter


    147, but soon descends to eleventy-one after a bottle of Jagermeister.

    147 according to Mensa


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    About average or slightly above I hope.

    I just did one there and apparently it's now been renamed the bollocko quotient. Some chick just called me to confirm it then she got distracted and I am pretty sure she had an orgasm in esperanto after hearing my voice.

    It landed on a triple word square, so I got about 33 points for IQ :cool:

    Lol at the values people are giving.

    About 120.

    Yep, quite a few geniuses in our midst.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,814 ✭✭✭TPD


    I've literally never seen or heard anyone saying their IQ is lower than 110 (with any hint of seriousness).

    It's hard to look serious whilst drooling.
    What's the average Irish IQ? (Preferably not one based on this thread.)

    93 according to wikipedia. "Intelligence and the Wealth and Poverty of Nations" by Richard Lynn.

    LOL.

    We can keep each other company in there. It'll be such fun.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,081 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    We were tested in school in fourth year and mine was 140 or so back then.

    It'd be lower now though as I'm fairly certain your age is taken into account.

    LOL at all the people saying 160. Ireland must be full of people with genius level intellects!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,178 ✭✭✭✭NothingMan


    According to many internet IQ tests i'm way above average and although I do like to think highly of myself I would never trust an internet IQ test. Infact the questions are so subjective I would never trust an IQ test done by Mensa either.

    I did one before where my friend got higher and he's a drummer so it's obviously not to be trusted.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 34,567 ✭✭✭✭Biggins


    I'd be afraid to do an IQ test.
    Last thing I'd want is to have it confirmed that I am indeed a muppet as I suspect! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,573 ✭✭✭✭kowloon


    Do you get extra points for doing it through Irish?

    So that's what IQ stands for...

    Couldn't you just make 10 smarter?

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,857 ✭✭✭Valmont


    IQ tests performed on the internet are not real IQ tests. A proper test can only be administrated by a trained professional. Stop wasting your time; you're probably not as smart as you think you are anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,688 ✭✭✭Kasabian


    Does your IQ get higher as you get older and absorb more knowledge of your world or does it decline as you burst brain cells due to excesses of life?

    Yeah... internet IQ tests are useless.

    The old teletext IQ test was the only way to be certain about it.

    The ignorance people show towards intelligence testing is unbelievable at times. Anyway who sits around doing 'many' internet IQ tests even though they don't trust them at all? You do know that Mensa don't doIQ tests, right? I presume you're joking about the drummer thing because something that stupid couldn't be anything other than a joke.

    Go and read up then get back to me.

    I forgot something once for the wife.
    She was kind enough to be nice about and helped me with my memory/IQ by shoving a 2 gig USB memory stick where the sun don't shine.

    Now I darn remember for sure every bloody thing she tells me! Thanks to her my memory/IQ has improved. :o
