Found this free IQ test on the web. Took me less than 25 minutes to do. It's pretty cool. Some abstract questions on there.

    Oh, by the way... you can get your results for free. Don't sign up for the membership thing. You do have to provide your email address though.

    I made a 129. I'm considered a "visionary philosopher" whatever the eff that is. I really don't consider myself as being very intelligent. I must have gotten "lucky" on a couple of guesses.

    My results email said the following:

    This means you are highly intelligent and have a powerful mix of skills and insight that can be applied in a variety of different ways. Like Plato, your exceptional math and verbal skills make you very adept at explaining things to others — and at anticipating and predicting patterns. And that's just some of what we know about you from your IQ results.

    I know that there are some of you out there that will outscore me easily. FYI, Einstein had a 160 IQ. Over 135 is supposed to be like PhD status and less than 1% of the population I think.

    well i got a 106... not bad i guess...

    says::

    This means you have exceptional verbal skills. You can easily make sense of complex issues and take and unusually creative approach to solving problems. Your strengths also make you a visionary. Even without trying you're able to come up with lots of new and creative ideas. And that's just a small part of what we know about you from your test results.

    We also compared your answers with others who have taken the test, and according to the sorts of questions you got correct, we can tell your Intellectual Type is an 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.

    Congratulations, Dave!
    Your IQ score is 142

    This number is the result of a formula based on how many questions you answered correctly on Emode's Ultimate IQ test. Your IQ score is scientifically accurate; to read more about the science behind our IQ test, click here.

    During the test, you answered four different types of questions — mathematical, visual-spatial, linguistic and logical. We analyzed how you did on those questions, which reveals the way your brain uniquely works.

    Awesome score Dave!! Man you are probably Mensa material.

    I posted this just for fun. The test will make you think and "exercise" your brain a little.

    For those of you who scored lower its just a test and for fun. Nothing to be embarrassed about at all.

    A test like this is just a test. It does not mean that one will or will not be successful in life or anything else. I have met some really really smart people who have no common sense and are generally very unsocial people. We all have our strengths and weaknesses. I'm really just starting to learn about mid to higher end audio....and then there are you out there that know tons more than I do about that..

    I know, but how accurate is this really? I'm just curious, because I'm usually not good and standardized tests and such.

    Making bad grades does not mean that a person doesn't have intuition or isn't smart (three negatives in a sentence WTF!). Many intelligent people in the past did not even finish school and they were geniuses. They were just bored with school and didn't give a rat's **** about it.

    Also I believe this is adjusted for age some kind of way. That's why they ask for your birthdate.

    Its just for fun folks even if it means zilch. I really thought the test makes you think and was kind of fun to take. You don't even need a calculator or anything to do it as the numbers they chose are round numbers you can do in your head.

    Remember... It's just for fun!!

    135... and it says that, "(I'm) a Visual Mathematician." Which I believe is true, I see everything in the context of physics equations. Numbers are cool!
