I found this today while trolling around:
http://iqtest.dk/main.swf

I should have guessed at the last 3 questions, but didn't. Ran out of time. Scored 126

Not sure how reliable it is, never took one before, and certainly didn't think I'd score that high.

I'm curious what others think of it, or how you do (if you care to share).

My 1st too. Rolling Eyes

122, with loads of time to spare. Razz

But then with half the "questions" seemingly trivial and the rest utterly undecipherable, time was never a factor. Confused

So many Stars, so few Missiles!

In space no one can hear you scheme! Deal

I also got 126 from this one. Rolling Eyes

I have tried few similar looking tests before. Most gave 110-140 to most people i asked from. Solving them has probably nothing to do with intellect anyway. Confused

Hmm, this isn't a good test, I think... All shapes and patterns - I felt challenged only in pattern matching and deduction - and I'm under the impression that there's more to IQ than that (certainly the tests I've toyed with in the past tested more areas, for example, being able to comprehend metaphors.)

Spookily enough, I got 126 on this one too. Time was an issue for me, I had to go back and guess 5 questions in the last 20 seconds, lol, a couple of those being totally wild guesses. Laughing

I took it as well, and yes, I also got 126. And I agree with what the others say, it's mostly about pattern recognition.

Yeah, bread too.

133.

Reckon I got 35 or 36 out of 39 correct with 3 total guesses.
Questions 36, 37 and 39 were completely baffling.
38 was only vaguely comprehensible.
14 was hard until a later question gave me a clue.

By the time you realize how steep the curve is, you will be using five types of calculus to get to the market. You will then need three different calculators to perform what you once considered basic arithmetic.
