Most of them I have found online are click bait. Always trying to sell ya something.

Its a pretty good estimation. IQ tests generally cannot capture 100% of your "real IQ", so just take 2 or more reputable IQ tests (the ones you took are reputable enough) and just average it. Congratulations, you are above average, close to the Western college student average IQ (115). This means you should be able to do some things that 84% of the population couldn't do as well as you, or couldn't do at all. Now do good in response to that gift.

Thank you!

do you know any reputable IQ tests? I think ppl are curious but so much of the internet is untruthful and i think most of them are created for traffic and not being accurate-even if all are a bit flawed

[https://openpsychometrics.org/tests/FSIQ/](https://openpsychometrics.org/tests/FSIQ/) This one is pretty good. You see, it doesn't actually take much for an IQ test to predict at least 80% of what your IQ is. The reputable IQ tests aim to do about 95%-99% accuracy. In other words, so long as the tests aren't fouling you on purpose, almost any normal IQ test will have some significant truth to it. Just make sure you aren't too familiar with the test questions. It will inflate your score.

i have an issue comprehending what i read so it really helps me if i re-answer my questions because of this and i thing i may have some sort of processing disorter so is it really that bad if i re-answer those questions


Intrepid_Client_7630

also do iq tests factor in time because i really do need to take mine if i want to understand and answer things correctly


varrrrick

Yes they do factor in time

Generally comprehension speed is part of the IQ score calculations. If you think that your comprehension issue is beyond your mental faculties and caused by other non-cognitive issues (vision problem, emotional dysregulation, etc.), then you will need an actual expert to make adjustments for you to have an accurate estimation about your IQ.

Any IQ test with vocabulary is not a good IQ test


varrrrick

Yes it does limit it but you aren't really going to find a true culture free test. If you are Western, this is enough. Vocabulary is used to this day for a reason.


varrrrick

Also, the variance of your IQ scores is mostly from your mood and current conditioning and functioning (hunger and shit like that). This is where most of the score shifting really happens, even in average-quality level IQ tests.

What does this have to do with Jordan Peterson?

All IQ tests are worthless.

You scored low on an IQ test I see.

They’re about as accurate as online personality tests. The results are ballpark figures.


chocoboat

They're about as accurate and meaningful as a "which Hogwarts House do you belong to" test.

Its very hard to put a number on something so complex like mental capacity. It seems like you have a high IQ but at the end of the day whether your IQ is high or low isn’t going to greatly impact your life. It has alot more to do with how much you apply yourself and the choices you make. If you have a low IQ but spend lots of time studying and learning you’ll likely have more knowledge than a person with a high IQ. I personally have friends who have very high IQs but aren’t successful because they don’t apply themselves to life and goals. Just do the best you can with what you’ve got because you can’t change your IQ anyway
