So I suppose the IQtest.com might be roughly equivalent to the Cattell test (have the same SD in other words) (Every IQ test has a mean of 100).
Assuming you know how many ounces in a pound (aren't there different ounces and pounds for different things?) and how much a nickel and a dime is.
I'm pretty sure nickel=5 and dime=10, but there was a long delay while I dredged that up from some sitcom memory bank...
And the days of the week, the months of the year, the alphabet, common sayings and all that. That's why there is the 'culture fair' IQ test which consists entirely of picture puzzles.
Always seems wierd to me that for tests with a mean of 100, I hardly ever meet anyone who tests less than 100, and most of the people I talk to are in the 150 range. Either I've got really picky tastes in friends, or all my friends are full of sh1t...
What's odd about that? I don't know anyone here who lives in rented accommodation but 33% of the population does. This is a fishing port and I don't know anybody who works in any fishing related job. And so on...
