The Internet is a breeding ground for anonymous "stars" of all kinds, including geniuses. Therefore, people might think you're pulling their legs, or they're just "trolling" you. But if the 157 is true, then congratulations on your result. That's a very high IQ.

The most valid and reliable way to do so is to take an individual IQ test given by a qualified psychologist. You can find a psychologist by looking in the phone book or by doing a yahoo search for the psychological association in your state. This is the best way to go if you want an IQ test for a serious reason, such as medical, legal or educational purposes.\n\nIf you don't need a professional test, there are several that you can take informally. Take the MENSA home test ($18) at http://www.us.mensa.org/AM/Template.cfm?Section=Mensa_Home_Test&Template=/customsource/cfauthnet_sim/forms/mht/form_mht.cfm\n\nLess reliable and professional tess are available online. Here is one example:\nhttp://www.iqtest.com/\n\nWhy do you want to take an IQ test? Think about what you want to know by this, and how knowing it will be helpful to you. Don't overestimate the importance of IQ in success or happiness. In general, motivation and effort make a much bigger impact on most people's lives!

1. Any halfway accurate IQ test you take would factor in your age when calculating the score, so a 13 year old who gets less questions right than a 25 year old might still get the same score.\n\n2. Most IQ tests you find on the internet are total crap, and furthermore, that Tickle IQ test gives you your score based on the performance of everyone who's taken the test, which includes people who cheated on it, which makes it ridiculously inaccurate.\n\n3. Many IQ tests are flawed in the questions they choose to use. For example, questions about proverbs and other cultural items do not test your intelligence so much as the depth of your knowledge of American English, and a brilliant person from another culture will miss that question. A famous example of a flawed question is, "Which of these does not belong with the others? A. dog B. deer C. cow E. horse." Someone might say "A. dog" because the dog does not have hooves. Someone else might say "deer" because the deer is the only animal that is not domesticated. Someone else might say "cow" because the cow is the only one that's a source of food. Someone else might say "horse" because the horse is the only one you can ride on.\n\n4. IQ tests often do not account for the variety in kinds of intelligence. There are many kinds of intelligence, some recognized by American culture and some not recognized by American culture but recognized by other cultures. For example, there is social intelligence, creative intelligence, logical intelligence, etc. IQ tests generally look at four intelligence types, but totally miss many others.\n\n5. The original purpose and professional use of IQ tests is not to tell normal people how smart they are. IQ tests were originally designed to detect mental deficiencies. For example, a child with a particular disorder might fail a large number of questions related to logic, or a child with another disorder may miss the questions relating to spacial skills.\nOnline tests will do a sort of reverse of this- telling you that your strong point is your spacial reasoning or something. It's not quite so bad as just spitting out a score, but it still is not what that kind of test is best used for.\n\n6. Once again, these things are as unreliable as all ****!\n\nSome geniuses might get a 260 on these tests. But, some geniuses might get a 95. There are many kinds of intelligence, and no IQ test- especially no free IQ test you find on the internet- can really tell you how smart you are. Your intelligence is something you have to discover by yourself, by coming up with the right way to go about things and getting the results you expect.

My earlier response (when you asked this question before) indicated that different IQ tests have different scales of measurement.\n\nSo if you know someone with an IQ of 228 and you want to know what that means, you need to find out what instrument was used to give them that number.  Then find out what percentile that puts them in.  Or--perhaps simpler--ask them what percentile their IQ is in, rather than what their "score" is.\n\nThe only time I had an "official" IQ test done, my score was around 140.  But my score was also the highest possible on that (widely respected and widely used) test, placing me in the top 1%.  A score of 228 must have been given by a different testing instrument, and you need more information before you know anything about what it means.

You have to pass an IQ test before they allow you to use it. Anyone under 80 is OK, so I think you'll pass.

An IQ of 120 is actually above average.  98th percentile is really good.  What it means is that you scored better than 98% of the people who took the test.  The standard deviations you don't really need to worry about.\n\nBottom line:  You're a smart cookie!  Congrats on your test scores!

Well, according to Tickle.com, the average person taking their IQ test scored a 115.  The highest average was in DC, with 119, and the lowest was Mississippi, with 112. But, who really knows.  It's not like everyone in the countries take the stupid test.  I scored a 132, and guess where I live...Mississippi.  Go figure.

It depends on which test you take, since different tests give different numeric results.  The generally accepted approximate IQ for entrance to Mensa is 140.  They're looking for the top 2% really, and that's not all that tough anymore.

If you have to ask, you're not.\n\nI'm really not trying to be rude but if you are smart, you know it. And that's no matter what any educator or IQ test will tell you. Those tests are all very well and good but they're man-made so are inherently flawed.

It is around average.  Unless it was one of those "online IQ tests," they tend to skew it to make folks feel smart (and join $$$ programs), the average on those tends to be higher, around 115-120ish.\n\nThen again the IQ test really tests your ability to take the IQ test, so take it with a grain of salt.  In general "smart" people do better at it, but it isn't an exact measure.

Sure it is worth it if you are interested in that sort of thing and find it entertaining.  If you want to know where your score fits, the range of 85 to 115 is considered low average to  high average.  Obviously, higher than that is above average.  Over 130 is considered superior.  Keep in mind that any IQ test you do on line is not the same as a real IQ test.  The on  line tests tend to score higher.  \n\nThis link may help you.

a legitimate IQ test cannot be taken online. it must be administered by a qualified professional that scores test based on your responses to several series of questions. takes over an hour.

It wouldn't matter if it's free. People with IQ's this low belong at the McDonald's drive-in (Which would explain why I only get the correct order about 50% of the time.) But if you insist on higher education, I would suggest that you apply at BCU (Bobo's Clown University) so that you may fine tune your skills.

http://www.iqtest.dk/main.swf\n\nis worth taking if you want to know what your IQ is.\n\nDo not take the tickle test or the other test shown here. They are not like real tests and give invalid results.\n\nIf you can score 135 on this test you should be able to qualify for mensa.
