It doesn't really matter how old you are. Your I.Q. stays the same your whole life. Weird, I know.

They adjust your score by your age I think. Your score does change over a period of time though. Like if you took one when you were 12, and then took another one at say, 18 - your score is going to be as much as 10-20 points higher. At least thats what I read somewhere. Wikipedia I think. pinch.gif

That's not true, you must have misread the Wikipedia entry. They said that it is possible to increase your IQ, as people have previously increased their IQ by almost 18 points. Your IQ should be constant throughout your life, and for a select few it will change.

^ Well, yeah. No one's going to jump from average to genuis, but your score can change. Either as a result of age (mostly from child to adult), or by a person excersizing their brain more with puzzles and stuff.

Nevermind, I think you're correct. Lol. xD
I guess I just read a small part of it and assumed too much.

The IQ tests are culturally biased though.

True, but usually it doesn't rise by much. Not enough to put you into another category at least.

I think its horrible how some parents have their kids' IQs taken. Children are most likely to vary their IQ, because they have yet to learn some things on IQ tests. So some kids get low IQs recorded and are held down by it for life.

Acutally it kinda does, the european IQ test tests predominately on speed and analytical skills, whereas as in some cultures taking time for deliberation and spacial skills are more highly favoured.

I wrote a paper on this for Uni last year, let me go find it.

[edit] there , references are on another page, but you dont need that

Yes, thats really good!

According to the scale I found (see my other posts), it says you're gifted. (125-134). 100 is the median score, so a 127 is definately above average.

I scored 118 on a recent I.Q. Test. It looks like a terrible grade somehow. stubborn.gif

I took the test, but It wanted my email so I didn't find out the exact number. But I know it was low due to the fact I really didn't understand anything on it. :3
