Are online IQ tests accurate? - October 4th 2010, 12:39 PM

I decided to take a few last night (I was bored) and my average score was about 105 which is slightly above average. I just wonder if they're accurate or not?

Some could be I guess. I personally don't trust most things on the internet though. Depends on the site as well.

I don't really think so. But they are kinda fun to take. Some of the questions may be really odd something though.

How do you go about taking a genuine IQ test then? I'd like to know what mine really is

I wouldn't trust an online IQ test further than I could throw it, which is not at all. To get a real IQ test you need a psychologist to administer it.

Anders: No, it's not your hand that I've heard you've been showing...

IQ tests are complete bullshit. At least online they are. I'd recommend you get administered by a professional to get a more accurate number.

Online IQ tests are fake. There are only 3 real IQ tests (at least in the US).

I'm sure there are some that give a reasonably accurate result O.o though I think I once read somewhere that ever iq test is different, and they have different levels of iq representing average and smart and things O.o

I took one IQ test online that was around 50 questions I think and it gave an accurate answer (As far as I know).

What I mean by that is I got within a few points of my dad's IQ.

He said he scored around 130, I got 134.

I don't trust the internet all that much- especially if it's some random site where you didn't pay for the test. It might give you AROUND what you are (with a huge margin of error), but nothing I'd rely on...

Ask your doctor/school counselor where you could take one

I thought there were three, but there may only be two. The Stanford-Binet and the Wechsler IQ tests are the only ones that are real. They are not available online; they must be administered by a human being.

Ah lame. I'm guessing you'd have to pay to take one. I don't care enough about my exact IQ to pay
