What's your IQ?
Ant:
lol i answered about 20 questions then got bored and filled in random answers and scored a 137.
130 - 145 Genius (2.3% of test takers)
Anyways... IQ just measures your ability to learn. Intelligence is often used as a synoymn for wisdom, when really they are quite different things. If you don't invest your time actually learning IQ ends up meaning very little. But additionally, learning isn't just about learning quickly, but learning properly. Its similiar to genetics and weight lifting. I don't have amazing genetics, but I'm fairly strong because I workout a lot, and approach my diet and exercise scientifically.... or as Vince Lombardi says, "perfect practice makes perfect" anyways... people with low IQs may be at a disadvantage in the class room, but I wouldnt base my hiring decisions on IQ. I'd base them on experience.

^^ I agree, I really don't put any stock in an IQ test, I just posted up my result for discussion purposes. I feel that it doesn't test the true things which make a person intelligent. For example, I have an incredible memory and can recite names and dates like crazy. I can easily name all 21 of Canada's Prime Ministers and there approximate times in office and every US President from 1928 to the present and their terms. An IQ test doesn't have anything about that.

Not really, my ego is huge already. If anything it took me down since I got a higher score when I was 11 or 12.
