Hi Ben,
I only took this particular test once, but this isn't the first IQ test I
ever took.
A couple years I did another similar test online and got 139.
And then when I was 5 years old my mother took me to see some special doctor
because everybody thought there was something wrong with me. I hadn't spoken
a word up to this point in life.
After lots of tests that I remember being quite fun, the doctor said I had
an IQ of 150+. After that I decided it was worth talking to people.
By the way, I have a grade 9 education and the only formal Programming
training I have is a 3-day Tango course taught by Ian Daniels about 5-6
years ago. I'm entirely self-taught.
So, I think this means we either get dumber as we get older, or these test
are completely unreliable.
Interesting, but I wouldn't read to much into them....

Ok, ok, how many of you took the test more than once to beat my
score. ;-)
I need to know the mean number so that it is a fair playing field.
LOL!

Congratulations, Steve!
Your IQ score is 135
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.
Ugggg Bill Gates, ptuie. Now Steve Jobs I could handle.

Hi All,
I happened upon this site which tests your IQ. It is a
pretty grueling 40 question test.
I think that most of us on this list are highly intelligent,
so let's have some fun and go take the test at http://www.tickle.com
Here is my score
Congratulations, Ben!
Your IQ score is129

Your Intellectual Type is Insightful Linguist. This means
you are highly intelligent and have the natural fluency of a writer and the
visual and spatial strengths of an artist. Those skills contribute to your
creative and expressive mind. And that's just some of what we know about you
from your test results.
I paid the 12 buck to get the report and it is
pretty insightful.
Well if anything it made me feel better today ;-)
